105884 - Get Msg - button shows accounts twice

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 100952

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Wouter Van Hemel]

Mozilla mail 0.9.5 shows accounts twice in it's pulldown menu triggered by the
'Get Msgs'-button.

My girlfriend has two mail-accounts on different servers, [e-mail]
and [e-mail]. SMTP is relay.chello.be (which is my provider). On top
of that, she has a news account on news.chello.be, to which she mails with
[e-mail]. The account names are respectively 'raketti', 'chello',
and 'newsgroups'.

In 0.9.4, this button would show the both email accounts. But 0.9.5 shows each
one of those accounts double:

|GetMsgs|
|_______|
 raketti
 raketti
 chello chello

Both double-entries point to the right servers. [screenshot 1]

I experimented a bit. When all accounts are removed and readded (order
'raketti-chello-newsgroups'), the tab shows accounts fine (username @ server)
after the first and second mail account have been entered, but when the
news-server is added, it starts behaving like this, and keeps on doing it even
when the news-server is removed completely.

First I thought it was a 0.9.4->0.9.5 config file change that linked keys a bit
wrong, but since deleting the configuration and starting all over doesn't help,
I think it's the button-code itself... The accounts used to show
anna.xxx@server, but now only the news-server shows anna.xxx@server. Or maybe
it's the repeating anna.xxx that mixes keys up... [screenshot 2]

I don't know. Marking it as 'Mail Window Front End' for now.
