also, I'm going to do a little code clean up in there too, so that to migrate
addition prefs, you'll just add to a static array.

accept and marking m10.

Comment 2

[David :Bienvenu]

it doesn't have to be m10 - I'm not going to get the code done that needs it,
and even if I did, I would assume a default of TRUE, which would be safe.

Comment 3

Bulk move mail/news M10 bugs to M11

fixed.  now we migrate a whole truck load of imap specific prefs:

"mail.server.server1.admin_url","mail.server.server1.capability","mail.server.server1.cleanup_inbox_on_exit","mail.server.server1.delete_model","mail.server.server1.dual_use_folders","mail.server.server1.namespace.other_users","mail.server.server1.namespace.personal","mail.server.server1.namespace.public","mail.server.server1.override_namespaces","mail.server.server1.using_subscription"

I've added all these attributes to the nsIImapIncomingServer interface, which is
now specified in XPIDL.
(mozilla/mailnews/imap/public/nsIImapIncomingServer.idl)

all the getter and setters are there, and are hooked up to get and set the right
prefs.

marking fixed.

OK using 1999-10-21-11m11 on NT 4.0 and linux 6.0.
Can't test on mac, migration is majorly broken for awhile (bug #16305).

All prefs noted migrate with correct values to new 5.0 style prefs.js lines, the
exception being delete_model -- see bug #14904.
Any other imap prefs migration issues will be logged separately.

Cannot test whether migrated values reflect properly in UI, since the Account
Setup UI is currently incomplete in the IMAP mail server prefs area.

Left the actual testing of said prefs for IMAP person, huang.
Will log a bug for me to retest for properly setting the UI for each respective
pref upon migration dependent on alecf correcting the Account Setup UI (ref bug
#14059 and bug #14087).
