The testcase in Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2pre)
Gecko/20061223 SeaMonkey/1.1 shows the following error in -console (command
line):

EX: = [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005
(NS_ERROR_FAILURE)
[nsIMsgComposeService.InitCompose]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"
location: "JS frame ::
chrome://messenger/content/messengercompose/MsgComposeCommands.js ::
ComposeStartup :: line 1303" data: no]

When mail.compose.max_recycled_windows is set to 1, I get the error in -console
and error console and a Window with greyed out subject and to fields (like the
one described in bug 307672). At the next try to Edit as New I get the "An
error occurred while creating a message compose window. Please try again."
error dialog like Henrik in Thunderbird. With mail.compose.max_recycled_windows
set to 0 I get the error dialog at first try.

The difference to Thunderbird is that composing a new mail works fine in
SeaMonkey after those errors.
