Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(MailNews Core :: Networking: NNTP, defect)

Description

[Steven Ostrowski]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007

After downloading all message headers for a newsgroup solarmetric.kodo.developer
on server news.solarmetric.com (does not require authentication), the headers
are not saved. If I restart MailNews, and click on this newsgroup, it asks me to
re-download all headers. The number of new headers is still shown on the left
panel, but when I click on the newsgroup I need to re-download them all.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add account for server news.solarmetric.com
2. Subscribe to solarmetric.kodo.developer
3. Download all headers
4. Restart MailNews
5. Click on newsgroup again, it will prompt for download all headers

Actual Results:  
Had to redownload all headers again

Expected Results:  
Only asked to download new headers, the ones I had previously downloaded should
be saved
