If you are digging around in the PHP code than maybe I can ask you to  
install firebug within firefox and rerun your testing? The nice thing  
about firebug is that it clearly shows you what AJAX requests are sent  
out and what they contained. So once you are creating a new mail and  
type the first letter you should start seeing post requests. Does the  
post look okay?

Cheers,

Gunnar
