0.8.4 incompatible with IE8?

[grpprod]

Many users have complained that RC does not work anymore with IE8. I have tested, and noticed that when double-clicking on a message results in a blank screen. Is there a workaround?

It is fixed in git (release-0.8 branch).

Alec, I haven't heard any complaints on this, but should I remove the line mentioned in Ticket 1488839 from mail.css in my production 0.8.4?

[grpprod]

I see it is fixed indeed. However, would it be too much to ask what exactly is the fix for THIS issue I mentioned in the first place? It is not very easy to customize the fixed CSS again. Besides that I would just like to know what can cause this.

#ABerglund:

I couldn't find this line at all...that's strange. div.hide-headers contains only:

div.hide-headers {
        background-position: center -1629px;
}
