264596 - RSS accounts shouldn't accept drag-folder events

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, defect)

Description

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

Seen using Version 0.8 (20041015) on the Mac.

STR:

1. Drag a previously created Virtual Folder from your Inbox to an RSS/News and
Blogs Account.
2. The folder moves to this location.

FYI, I tried moving this to a News Account and was not able to. We should be
consistent in this area.

Comment 1

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

also an issue on linux.

Comment 2

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

I don't see this behavior any more on the Mac. If Sarah can confirm on Linux we
should close this one out.

Comment 3

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

I can no longer drag a virtual folder (created on IMAP, fwiw) to an RSS account.
but I can still drag an IMAP folder to an RSS account --however, it's copied
over (it's an IMAP folder), not moved. is that still expected?

Comment 4

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

We probably should prevent the behavior that Sarah describes in Comment #3 if it
can be easily accomplished.

Comment 5

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

nominating per comment 4, if it's easy to fix.

Comment 6

[Scott MacGregor]

If I'm understanding the comments correctly this is working correctly. Moving
any imap folder to a local folder / server results in a copy not a move. 

Comment 7

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

comment 0 is fixed per comment 2. I agree.

RSS is a local folder so copying folders and messages to it is permitted.
Scott says this is OK, so closing WFM.
