20561 - [DOGFOOD] Thread pane: subject & sender cells are empty, dates are wrong

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 20230

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect, P3)

Description

[Mike Pinkerton (not reading bugmail)]

On mac, since about monday, the subject cells in the thread pane are all blank.
No data. The sender cells are mostly blank, sometimes they have some text. The
dates are all 12/31/69 for some reason. It appears like the number of messages is
correct, but I can't tell what any of them are ;)

This is keeping me from being able to use IMAP mail at all. I don't know if pop
suffers from this. I've heard rumors this is macOS only. can't verify now, doing
builds everywhere else.

ok, I'm guessing this is a charset issue.
i18n has been making their stuff more case sensitive, and it's possible that the
charset stored in the summary files is in upper case when the i18n stuff is only
recognizing lower case, or something similar....

tried trashing my profile dir's IMAPMail folder and it didn't help.

drat I was hoping that trashing your .msf files would solve this. I don't see
the problem on my Mac. But my build today failed. I'm restarting it now. I'll
see what turns up....alec your i18n theory is an interesting one...that could be it.

This is the same as http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20230, I think.
