i think this is part of the many other "out of synch" status messages in bug 190044

I've seen the same behavior in both the nightlies leading up to 1.3b and 1.3b
itself.  Perhaps this bug should be addressed by addressing bug 61139?


Here's the about line:

Mozilla 1.3b Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030210

I'm also seeing this bug for quite some time now on Windows builds and I miss
something like "Downloding message x of y" a lot. And I agree that progressbar
should be scaled according to size of messages to download. Currently using
build 2003021208 on Windows XP.
