korn reported new mail but mozilla on the linux box showed nothing new. Request
new mail (^T) produced nothing. Off to another machine and started up mozilla
mail/news; new mail listed. Back to the linux box, shutdown and restart mozilla;
now there is new mail listed.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Wait for mail to arrive
2. Notice that mail/news shows nothing new
3. restart mozilla, now it works




the IMAP daemon is running on RedHat Linux 8.0 on the same box as I am running
Mozilla. The daemon is: imap-2001a-15.

Judd, we have had times when adding an IMAP account the mail doesn't show up in
the Inbox after giving the password, but if you change to a different folder
then back to the Inbox the messages display. So far the reports were only for
the initial download of the Inbox.  When you see the problem again can you try
changing folders then going back to the Inbox to see if the messages display
then comment in this bug.  This may be related to that bug and we would have a
new scenario to test.  I'll look for that bug and post the number here when I
find it.

I'll watch for the failure.

I would be quite surprised if I did not try changing folders as you suggest so I
hold little hope this is a work a round.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
