Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Victor Martinez]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

I read a lot of usenet groups using Thunderbird. I add trolls to my kill file to
avoid reading their posts. I've noticed that some people I have to keep adding
to my kill file because I keep reading their posts. They do not change emails,
but for some reason, Thunderbird stops filtering them out. What's up?

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add annoying poster to filter by right-clicking on email address
2. Wait a few days, sometimes hours
3. Go back and read posts by filtered user

Actual Results:  
Posts that should be "marked as read" according to the filter settings, are
shown unread.

Expected Results:  
The filtered messages should be marked as read.

Victor (or anyone else): do you still see this problem on Trunk or recent 2.0.0.* TB or SM builds? If not (or no response), I will close this bug as INCO in 3 weeks.

RESO INCO per last comment or preceding one.

If you think this is in error, respond answering why.
