Build 1999102508M11: Mac 8.5.1

folders.

Additional Information:

For clarification. We initially tried viewing accounts using:

- An existing POP account, no migration.
- An existing IMAP account, no migration.

Do you have a live Ethernet connection?

[Alec Flett]

I'm seeing this on linux too... it looks like our datasource is never queried
for some reason.
Still investigating.

This works fine for me on my macbuild from 10am this morning.

Comment 8

[scottputterman]

My linux build from 10am is also working fine.  However, I have never migrated
over an account.  I've either added it by hand or used the Account Wizard.

shoot, it was changes in my own tree causing me the same problem
When I took my changes out of my tree, it started working for me, so it might be
mac-only after all.
Still investigating.

ninoschka, was this with a migrated profile by any chance?

Comment 11

[Ninoschka Baca]

The test was performed on a profile that already existed, it was not migrated.
It was actually Peter's system.

Comment 12

[Alec Flett]

Because this is only happening for certain people, I think we should consider
opening the tree for this, and I'll keep working on it....

Mac - filed separately)

Peter or Ninoschka, and David, can you attach the offending prefs.js file (with
password removed, etc etc)

Verified as fixed in the MacOS commercial seamonkey 1999-10-26-08-m11.
I can see my folders in the sidebar.  Note: I had to drag the panel "My Panels"
down lower to uncover my folders.  Otherwise, it looks great.

I verified under POP and IMAP new profiles.
