228131 - New mail notification still appears in message composer when junk mail arrives.

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Luke Reeves]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031208
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031208

So there was a patch landed to fix the constant notification of junk e-mail and
that worked quite well.  But now I notice that when I'm typing in a compose
mail, the Mail button on the bottom-left toolbar sometimes turns to notify -
sure enough, junk mail.  But none of the other mail icons get flagged in the
interface.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a message composer window.
2. Wait for junk mail to arrive.
3. ???
4. Profit

Actual Results:  
The new mail flag appeared in the Navigator toolbar (bottom left).

Expected Results:  
Nothing.

I attempted to reproduce this bug -- not easy, since I get relatively little 
spam.  I finally had a case where a bug fetch resulted only in a single message 
ID'd as junk, and moved to the Junk folder, while I had a Compose window open.  
The Compose window's mail icon did not show the green flag.

For reference, see bug 233929 and bug 233930, altho in both cases the 
notification is shown via all the usual mechanisms.

This was tested with a recent 1.7a build:
  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7a) Gecko/20040210

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
