141462 - Failed to import subfolders from Outlook Express

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Profile Migration, defect)

Description

[Christopher Özbek]

As I tried to import a 230 MB Outlook Express 6.00.2600 account account with a
very compley message structure (400+ folder, average depth ~ 4) I was very
suprised to see, that Mozilla Mail did not import a single message from these
folders. The following TopLevel-Folders were successfully retrieved: 3000
Message "Send Mails", 30 Inbox, 1 Outbox, 12 Draft, 0 Deleted Messages. The
folder user created folder "Storage" existed but contained no message (should be
arround 16000). Two other Top-Level user created folders were missing completly.
Import was redone several times. Identical results every time.

Are subfolders to Top-Level Folders unsupported?

This bug was encountered using an old (3+ weeks) build of Mozilla, if this bug
persists using a current build, please get this bug reopened.
