Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect, P2)

Description

[Magnus Melin [:mkmelin]]

Creating accounts from account central doesn’t work.

Uncaught ReferenceError: openAccountSetupTab is not defined

STR

1. Select the top-level folder of an existing account in the folder pane ([e-mail]).
2. Under Set up another account, click Email

Actual

• nothing
• console error (see comment 0)

Expected

• open account setup tab for adding another email account
• no error

The other ways of creating an account from existing email (main menu, app menu) work for me on 112.0a1 (2023-02-22) (64-bit), Win10.

"search messages" also does not work
Uncaught TypeError: window.browsingContext.topChromeWindow.MsgSearchMessages is not a function
searchMessages chrome://messenger/content/msgAccountCentral.js:194
onclick chrome://messenger/content/msgAccountCentral.xhtml?folderURI=imap://[e-mail]:1

Import fails
Uncaught ReferenceError: toImport is not defined
onclick chrome://messenger/content/msgAccountCentral.xhtml?folderURI=imap://[e-mail]:1

Probably just a few lines are needed to fix these as we're most likely pointing at the wrong files to access those methods.

I would think this is pretty visible UI to users

Hello,

Seems like I have a similar issue on main screen of Thunderbird Beta 112.0b3 (64-bit)

Initially posted over at another forum, where I was directed to this one.
