Summary: iChat sends messages repeatedly while typing when using a Yahoo! account, when you haven't hit the return key yet. The text being typed remains in the message entry field until you do actually hit the return key, at which point it is sent again.

Steps to Reproduce: Add a Yahoo! account to iChat. Try to have a conversation with a buddy.

Expected Results: Messages shouldn't be sent until the return key is pressed.

Actual Results: Messages are repeatedly sent while typing.

Ditto... the Bonjour "send as I type" toggle is the workaround. On another note... bug report.apple.com appears to be broken at the moment.

Turning off the "Send as I type" preference on the Bonjour account in iChat preferences seems to "fix" this.
