234897 - Message subject changes to thread subject in folder pane?

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

I am sometimes seeing message subjects change when you click on them in the
folder pane. What seems to be happening, though I am not sure, is that the
subject is changed to the subject of another message in the same thread (even if
threading is off). The subject in the header display in the message pane is
unchanged.

Note: Reproducibility is "not quite sure", but there isn't a menu option for
that! An example follows.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Click on a message, for example "Re: Meeting"

Actual Results:  
Subject (in list of messages only) spontaneously changes to, for example, "Meeting".

Expected Results:  
Subject should not change.

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
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
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.
