1152054 - Folder loses current view mode

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Jochen De Smet]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:25.3) Gecko/20150323 Firefox/31.9 PaleMoon/25.3.1
Build ID: 20150323170640

Steps to reproduce:

Click RSS feed folder
Select "Unread" in the "View:" dropdown
Do other stuff for a while (don't have an exact trigger, sorry)
Click same RSS feed folder again


Actual results:

"View" dropdown now shows "All" again, and all messages are shown.

Actually clicking the dropdown arrow shows "Unread" still selected in the actual dropdown though.


Expected results:

"View" dropdown should still show "Unread" and only unread messages should be shown.

I only use the unread view for some of my RSS feeds, so I don't know whether the problem can occur with mail folders as well or not. 

Just clicking on another folder and immediately back does not show the problem, so it appears there's a time component to this.

I cannot reproduce this?
Can you reproduce with Thunderbird started in safe mode??

Restarted in safe mode, re-added "mail views" to the toolbar.

At this point one of the folders was correctly still on "unread", another back to "all".  I've set it back to "unread" and will comment again if it happens again or if it doesn't happen for a while.

Just happened again, while still in safe mode.
