After the creation of more mail accounts, I noticed that the settings of the
"Copies&Folders" section seems to be IN COMMON for all of the accounts. Example:
if you change them on account "Mickey" , they will be saved for account "Donald"
also.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create two accounts ("Mickey" & "Donald")
2.Open up Mail&Newsgroups account settings
3.Change some options in the "Copies&Folders" section of Mickey account
4.click OK
5.repeat 2
Actual Results:  
The "Copies&Folders" settings of Donald account are the same of Mickey's

Expected Results:  
The "Copies&Folders" settings of Donald account are preserved.

You just filed bug 239656 and bug 239657. Both bugs seem to contradict. Can you
clarify a bit what really happens?

The bug 239656 happens only with the account marked as "default".

The bug 239657 happens with two or more non-default accounts.

I hope this helps.

WFM, changing the "Copies & Folders" settings for not-default accounts works for
me with Mozilla 1.8b1.

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
