User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 Build Identifier: Mozilla 1.3b, 5-2-03 build AND 1-2-03 build AND Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 This occurs in the 5-Feb-03, 1-Feb-03 and 1.3a build but not the 1.1 build. 1) Delete an email (e.g. from the inbox) ... email deletes 2) try and delete another email ... email DOES NOT delete, mail view window locks and selecting new emails to view does not display them (double clicked to view an single email works fine though). 3) Change to view another folder. 4) Emails can be selected and viewed. 5) Try to delete an email ... does NOT delete, folder view locks. This is reproducable even after removing mozilla using Window 'add and remove' control panel and also deleting the .rdf files and pref.js file in the user directory before reinstall. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Uninstalled the 1.3a release and installed the 1.2.1 release. Delete works fine with that one.
Overinstalled nightly 5-Jan-03 (earliest available) over 1.2.1; problem occurs. Overinstalled 1.2.1 over nightly 5-Jan-03; mailnews operates correctly (concerning this bug...)
If you install according to the Installation Notes (to an empty dir; meaning uninstall first and clean up/delete the remaining "components" and "chrome" directories left behind in the installation dir): Does the bug still happen?
Yes. Deleted every thing mozilla from my system, emptied the registry (hmm, that was an history lesson). Installed 1.3.1. Recopied my Mail directory into Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\0df1sdwq.slt. Problem reoccurs. Delete everything again, installed build 2003021008. After much investigation, identified that my Inbox (with or without the .msf file) was the source of the problem. If my Inbox was copied back into the Mail directory (as opposed to being left out of the copy and Mozilla creating an empty one) then I could do multiple deletes in the Inbox UNTIL I closed down and restarted, then the bug occured. After restart the bug would not occur in any other folder UNTIL I did multi-deletes in the Inbox, then the bug would occur in all folders. Renamed my Inbox. Delete works fine. Tried this backwards and forwards many times, many combinations, original Inbox as inbox, BUG, original Inbox as something, anything else, no BUG. Recopied the renamed Inbox, restarted Mozilla, copied in Mail the entire renamed Inbox into the (Mozilla recreated empty) Inbox. Old size 3558k, New size 4315k. ** New Inbox works fine ** So a work round is to closedown Mozilla, rename 'Inbox' in Application Data, run Mozilla, copy contents of renamed folder into 'Inbox'.
