1840087 - NNTP message headers not shown

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Message Reader UI, defect)

Description

[Hartmut Welpmann [:welpy-cw]]

Usenet message headers are not shown anymore in the latest daily builds, while error console reports

Uncaught (in promise) NS_ERROR_XPC_JSOBJECT_HAS_NO_FUNCTION_NAMED: JavaScript component does not have a method named: "isPending"'JavaScript component does not have a method named: "isPending"' when calling method: [nsIChannel::isPending]
    onStateChange chrome://messenger/content/msgHdrView.js:545
msgHdrView.js:545

This seems to be a regression from Bug 1819916, as putting

        if (request.isPending()) {
          await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve));
        }

in msgHdrView.js in a try block and immediately catching the error mitigates the problem.
