I get an email, but is is not visible in the inbox. Kmail shows the email.
I enter a string in the serach entry field and then I see the mail also in mozilla.
I mark the mail and clear the search entry field.
Again, the mail disappears in the list.
I sort the mails by date, by name, ist still is invisible.
I repeat everything after closing and reopening mozilla. Bug remains.
Again, I enter the search string to make the mail visible.
I move it to a different folder and then I move it back to the initial folder.
Now everything is ok.
BTHW, I am using cyrus imapd.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Works only with my mail list
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
nothing.

Expected Results:  
show the mail on top of the list, when it arrived. The inbox list is sorted by
date with current date on top.

If I didnt know, the email had been sent, I wouldn't have noticed its missing. 

This makes this bug a potential source of data loss. As I could reproduce the
problem only with mozilla but not with KMail, I think, this is definitely a
problem with mozilla and not with cyrus imap deamon.

Ups, the problem seems to be in my filesystem. Looks as if those who say
"carefull with raiser fs" are rite 8-(. 2 files in one cyrus directory with same
inode number looks like a reiser bug to mee.

So I mark it as FIXED even though I am not absolutely sure, what has happened
