Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect, P3)

Description

[scurtis]

Linux 7_8 build.

1.Click New Msg.
2. Add to, subject, body
3. Choose File | Save As | [Draft or Template]

Console window shows

JavaScript error: uncaught exception: Component returned failure code:
0x8000ffff [nsIMsgCompose.SendMsg, {file:
file:////mozilla/7_8/package/chrome/messengercompose/content/default/messengercompose.xul,
line: 175}]

, which seems to map to

<menuitem name="New Western (ISO-8859-15)" onclick="SetD
ocumentCharacterSet('ISO-8859-15');"/>

?

Message doesn't seem to be saved anywhere.

Haven't tried other platforms.

Per Rich's posting in the newsgroup, these features should work in M8.

I've been having trouble even starting messenger on Linux. I know this worked
at one time, but I'll have to see after I get a fresh build.

On the Mac Seamonkey build 1999-07-08-10-m8 commercial build, Save as Draft and
Save as Template fail.  They do not save to the Draft folder or the Template
folder.  Note: on the Mac, there is no ms-dos/terminal window to see if a
javascript error has occurred.

Using 19990708 build on win32, Save as Draft and Save as Template fail too.

Changing Summary to remove [PP].  Changing platform to all and OS to all.

I was seeing this last night also, but after doing a build today, it looks like
someone fixed it. Because I didn't actually do anything to fix this I'll mark
it as worksforme, but I think this is functional again :-)

We just got notice of a release build for today so we'll try in that one.

fyi
In today Mac Seamonkey commercial build 1999-07-09-08-m8, Save as Draft and Save
as Template still does not work.  I tried using a single pop profile.  I did
check to make sure I had a Draft and Template local folder.

I did not try Linux or Win32 build.

Indeed. Same js error, 7_9 Linux.

Can you test this again...I have tested on Win32 and Linux with a multi server
profile on both and they seem to be working without JS errors.

On today Mac commercial seamonkey build 1999-07-18-08-m9, I can successfuly save
messages as Draft and as Template.  It works under POP and IMAP.

Note: in some tests, the draft thread view was not updated until I closed and re-
launched apprunner.  Other instances, the update was immediate.

I have not tried today Win32 or Linux.

Using 19990804 builds on linux and windows this works only if you don't have the
`user_pref("mail.default_fcc_uri", "mailbox://qatest20@nsmail-2/sent");` line in
the prefs50.js which is required for copy of messages to go to the Sent folder.
See bugs 11124 and 11284, we should wait until these bugs are fixed before
retesting this.

Linux RedHat 6.0 (1999-08-16-08 M9)
Win 32 (1999-08-20-16 M9)
Mac (1999-08-20-16 M9)
bug 11124 and bug 11284 are fixed.
Both Save as Draft, and Save as Template work fine.
