240921 - MailViews don't apply to message changes

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Dan Mellem]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040316

When using a view, such as "Not Junk," changing the message so it doen't match
the view remains in the message list and the view also remains. Either the
message changes should be reflected in the current view (and be hidden on
change) or the view should go back to "all" after a message is received or changed.

Selecting the view again will not be applied. The user needs to select a
different view and go back to the current view before it is applied.

Reproducible: Always

xref bug 199467.

Comment 2

[Karsten Düsterloh]

When in Unread view and reading messages (thus marking them as read), it'd be very inconvenient if they just vanish from the threadpane. Especially since bug 199467 is now fixed, this here is clearly WONTFIX.
