259909 - IMAP: Moving messages in threaded view mode does not work; moving individual messages does work in both modes

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[José Luis Tallón]

User-Agent:       Opera/7.54 (X11; Linux i686; U)  [en]
Build Identifier: version 0.7.3 (20040819)

Trying to move (drag-drop) sets of messages/threads when in threaded mode does 
not work -- at all(the drag icon would show, but nothing happens); Moving single 
threads does not work either. However, single *messages* do work, just like 
moving sets of messages (Caps-click selection) in unthreaded mode.
Apart from the obvious bug in not being able to move sets of messages in 
threaded mode, it is counterintuitive -- threads should behave just like single,
individual messages. This is all refered to IMAP folders.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Select threaded view
2.Select a set of messages/threads
3.Try to drag them to another folder.

Actual Results:  
NOP. The move operation simply will not be performed. After the drag icon 
disappears in the drop target, nothing happens.

Expected Results:  
Move the set of messages/*threads* (this is important) to the drop target 
(another IMAP folder)

Not of any interest, but: Thunderbird-0.7.3 on Debian, connecting to Courier-
IMAP.
