1905542 - Switching to a folder without any selection doesn't clear selected messages count.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

Attachment: Screenshot 2024-06-30 123334.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:128.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/128.0

Steps to reproduce:

In my Inbox I have a thread, and when I click the thread the Header of the Inbox changes to include the number selected (20 Selected). When I click the other main folders (Drafts, Templates, Sent, Archives, Junk, Trash) and to some degree other folders, the header continues to state "20 Selected". It will reset, but I'm not sure the cause.

Actual results:

The Header for the mail folder updated to include the number selected. The number of selected persisted in the header while changing to other folders - notably Drafts, Templates, Sent, Archives, Junk, Trash, but others as well.

Expected results:

The number of Selected should have been removed when changing mail folders because no messages are selected.
