199186 - Palm Personal and Collected Addr categories are not synced for new profiles

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(MailNews Core Graveyard :: Palm Sync, defect)

Description

[Cavin Song]

Scenario:

1. Create a new profile and perform palm sync. Make sure that both moz Personal
and Collected addrbooks have at least one card in them. After sync is completed
Palm handheld should have Personal and Collected categories created (with
record(s) as well).
2. Create a second new profile and perform palm sync again (ie, Palm handheld
still has both Personal and Collected categories). After sync is completed no
cards are added back to the moz addrbooks. Also in the log file you値l see the
following error code:

 Processing Palm AB 'Collected Addre' (catIndex/catId) = (2/0)... 
 Category index = 0, name = 'Collected Addre' has not been synced before
   Syncing with moz AB with 1 modified Palm record(s) ... Done syncing AB.      
   retval=-2147467259.


The negative retval indicated that it failed to sync palm records with the moz
addrbooks.

Attachment: Proposed patch, v1

What happens is that on the moz side we have "Collected AddressBook" but the
passed in addrbook name is only 15 chars long (ie, "Collected Addre") so we
were never able to find the right moz addrbook to sync data with.
