109940 - To/ From switched in INBOX

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 114533

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[James Peroulas]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.5) Gecko/20011012
BuildID:    2001101201

I have my mail account configured to use IMAP. Furthermore, under "Place a copy
in Folder", I have configured the mail program to place a copy of all outgoing
messages to the INBOX folder on the server.

When the contents of the INBOX are viewed, under the "Sender" column, it lists
the "to" address, not the "from" address.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a mail account to use IMAP. Ex. your account is [e-mail]
2.Configure mail account to place copies of outgoing mail into the INBOX of the
IMAP server
3.Receive an email from outside your network (Ex. send an email from
[e-mail] to [e-mail])

Actual Results:  When the email is received by the local machine and listed in
the top panel of the email application, the "Sender" column says that the email
came from "[e-mail]"

Expected Results:  The "Sender" column should indicate that the email came from
"[e-mail]"

This used to work correctly in a previous version of mozilla (The version that
comes with RH7.2)

Just downloaded 0.9.6 and it's still there.

I think it has to do with the fact that I'm using IMAP and I've configured the
mail client to put copies of my outgoing emails into the INBOX on the imap server.
