Was this caused by the checkin for bug
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=167841?

Anyone want to check by downloading the nightlys before and after 09/20/2002 15:32
to see if this is where the bug first appers.

Did it actually work before?
I assumed it a common feature of Windows that was never adopted.

Doesn't work in Mozilla 1.0.1

I doubt it ever worked, that is why it's a feature. :-)

doesn't work for me, but I know that it did. confirming as an enhancement request...

Comment 6

[Bob Lockie]

If it used to work, then it is a bug that should be fixed. :-)

Did it ever work in Linux and Windows?
I can check out Linux but I don't have access to Windows right now.

It does not work in 1.0.1 for Linux.
I'll try 1.0.

oops... messed that up, sorry.  first, I meant to say "I _don't_ know that it
did", hence the enhancement request.  second, I didn't try hard enough - this
does actually work for me with 2002092308 on win2k.

I put the original report in because somebody on a newsgroup said it didn't work.
*I* may have jumped the gun or misunderstood how to test it.
It works for folders in mail/news on all the versions below.
I have my sidebar turned off, so I will turn it on.
I think it does work on Linux and Win2K.
I will ask the original person to explain it more.

My mistake.
It works for me on all the builds I've tried.
The original reporter having a problem in Win98 can re-report it.
