1854252 - On startup message list jumps (scrolls) arbitrarily to old mails rather than position at new mail

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1827042

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

[Hank]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/117.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

Windows 11 Pro 64 bit

Thunderbird 115.2.2 64 bit

hello

I have Thunderbird set so that on startup the mails are sorted by date and I start the list is displayed and at the end of the new mails.

this has always worked great but since the latest update the following happens:

if I open Thunderbird and I have no new mail, I always get the last mail displayed. if I open Thunderbird and I have new mails then the display in the list jumps arbitrarily to mails from e.g. last year, although they are marked as read, so I always have to scroll down until I get to the new mails.

what is this, what should I do????

mein Englisch ist zu schlecht um es auf Englisch zu beschreiben
seit dem Update auf Supernova startet das Programm nicht mehr mit der neuesten Mail sondern irgendwo mittendrin in der Mail Liste so dass man erst lange runterscrollen muss bis man die neuen Mails lesen kann
