1911012 - Some github notification messages don't display correctly

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Steps to reproduce:

Notification messages from github don't display correctly in the full message preview window (content is visible only when double clicking on the message, but appears broken).

The change happened coincidentally with the upgrade to nebula.

Actual results:

Github notification messages that have a List ID showed just a partially broken word "ListID" and the the footer. Double clicking to open a full window made the content visible but with the "List ID" line intermingled.

I thought at first this was dependent on the yellow "remote content" warning bar, so I disabled that for these messages. That changed the result, but I think it's actually still broken, just differently. (See screen shots)

Expected results:

The List ID should not have interfered with the content. As it stands, without enabling remote content, it is no longer possible to view github notifications in the preview window. Even with, the display is broken.

As far as I can tell the List-ID is just a regular header in the message and should never be displayed overlaid on the body.

For some other messages, also from github notifications, the Date field is the one that shows the same display problems.

Looking at the message source, no common pattern emerges.

Can you attach a sample message as .eml? I don't see any issue with the ones I have.
We do utilize List-ID a bit differently now.

Did you make sure to try this in Help | Troubleshoot mode? Perhaps some add-on, or userChrome/userContent.css mod is interferring?

asmus, a testcase is needed.

Thank you for your patience. I had a temporary issue receiving notifications.

In the meantime, something may have changed. I viewed the original message again and now it looks different / correct.

I tried to attach a screen shot, but for some reason I don't see how I can do it, so I'll describe it: the "LIST ID" is now displayed in the gray header area right above the black bottom border of that area. That seems like it's the intended result so something must have changed to resolve this issue. Suggest to resolve as "spontaneously fixed".
