253072 - POP retrieval and filter action: fille into IMAP-folder does not work

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 210614

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Sven Niedner]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040707 Firefox/0.8
Build Identifier: Thunderbird 0.7.2

I have several accounts set up, one POP account and two IMAP accounts. I have a
filter rule to file certain messages from the POP account into a folder on an
IMAP account. Retrieving meessages from the POP server gives me an error
indication that another action is ongoing and hence filtering is impossible.

When I manually apply filters to the messages in the inbox, everything is OK.

The IMAP server is a rather new Cyrus IMAPd running on a local LAN connection.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup 1 POP an 1 IMAP account
2. Create a filter to file msgs. retrieved via POP into an IMAP folder
3. Start POP retrieval.

Actual Results:  
Error message indicating that filtering is impossible.

Expected Results:  
Messages should be filed from the POP account into the IMAP folder without user
intervention
