User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113

When reading mail using IMAP, new messages are displayed in the INBOX, but 
double clicking any of them causes a message window to open, but the message 
area is blank.

This bug identically occurs using Mozilla 1.6 on FreeBSD, so it isn't Windows 
specific.

I have discovered a workaround, which is as follows:
- after new mail is received, click on a non-SELECTable folder
- then open the message and everything works as expected

I'm happy to send an IMAP protocol trace to anyone who wants one, but I don't 
particularly want to post it publicly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. IMAP server is imap-uw-2002d
2. Download mail via IMAP
3. Double click new message

Actual Results:  
Message window opens, but message isn't there.

Expected Results:  
Message should have appeared.

Seems to be related to imap-uw-2002d.
This has been installed as a FreeBSD port.
sure, send me a log at bienvenu@nventure.com
Sent imap protocol log.  If you need any more, let me know.
Here is the tail of a network snoop on an imap session that doesn't display the
message.

As you can see, Mozilla gets the headers, but in response to double-clicking on
the message, it never tries to FETCH the body.
