1793315 - unified folder doesn't have correct unified-specific attributes

Status: NEW

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect, P2)

Description

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

Attachment: Proper unified folder context menu

Unified folders are similar to virtual folders, with special properties - similar to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/using-saved-searches

In version 102 and 106, on multiple computers, these properties are incorrect. I see menu items associated with normal folders which unified folders do not have, for example compact and new folder.

STR

1. profile with at least two mail accounts (with inboxes)
2. do View > Folders > Unified
3. right+click the root unified Inbox

Expected results: proper menu items for Unified Inbox - see screen shot
Actual results: menu items for normal folders - see screen shot - compact and new folder should not be listed

Alice, can you find the regression range?

Works for me in Tb106.0b3 and Tb102.3.1 Windows10.

On my Mac, only the Inbox is affected. The other six unified folders are correct. Also in troubleshoot mode.

Is this still happening?

Perhaps not as incorrect, but still incorrect.
With daily, for the Unified Inbox it offers "New Folder".
It also offers "Favorite" - but I'm not sure if that is a regression compared to version 102.
