23312 - [IMAP] Freeze on "folder/" in .mailboxlist of UW-IMAP

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(MailNews Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[Ben Bucksch (:BenB)]

Reproduce:
Add a slash ("/") after a foldername in the $HOME/.mailboxlist file of the
UW-IMAP server.

Actual result:
UI freezes after clicking on INBOX (not the bogus folder) and authentication.

Expected result:
No difference to behaviour without the slash or at least an error msg on
clicking on the bogus folder.

I don't know, how I came to these slashes, but I guess, they were inserted with
4.7 UI.

removing the slash from my .mailboxfile seems to have gotten me past this
problem but I still can't actually read my mail due to bug 21556. Mozilla
crashes before my mailbox is done downloading.

Fix checked in. Karen, .mailboxlist basically is the folder subscription list 
lived on sspitzer.mcom.com uwtest account home directory. To verify this bug, 
you can use 4.7 to subscribe only the Mail directory but not its children. I 
have modified the server folder hierarchy, all folders are now under Mail 
directory except INBOX and TRASH. Let me know if you are having problem 
verifying it.
