Details

(Keywords: dupeme)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/115.0

Steps to reproduce:

View a usenet newsgroup, change the View option dropdown to Unread from All. So far, so good.

Actual results:

That works, but when I move the focus to another folder and then return to the original folder / newsgroup, the View option has reset itself to All. This happens every time.

Expected results:

The View option for the folder should have remained at Unread as set by me. This worked in previous public versions of TB up to 102.

This is for User-Agent: Mozilla Thunderbird version 115

I'm hoping that someone is going to pick this one up, because the View dropdown value not sticking for a given folder is really unacceptable. The value has "stuck" through years of previous versions.

aik or max,

Can you reproduce this?

Always. Return to any folder (Mail or News) where I've previously changed the View drop-down from All to Unread, and the View value has returned to All. Every single time. For email folders I don't really care as I always want to see all emails, but in Usenet groups I generally only want to see new posts. This is the first version of Thunderbird in which I have ever experienced this problem (from v3 onwards!). Before, the View setting was retained per folder/news group.

Sorry, I thought you were referring to me!

NOTE This behaviour also happens with all of my few add-ons disabled.

Does this reproduce for other account types, mail specifically?

I've just tried it for mail folders and yes it does. Both accounts I tried this on are IMAP - one Gmail, one Live/Hotmail.
