265041 - cross account cacheing of info ?

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Thunderbird :: Account Manager, defect)

Description

[Carlos G Mendioroz]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Thunderbird version 0.8 (20040913)

When two IMAP accounts are accessed in the same server, and a folder with the
same name is present in both (Inbox :-) the data from one (# of messages)
overwrites both. This also triggers "new message" alerts when in fact there are
no new messages when one of the accounts has some messages.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have two IMAP accounts configured in the same server
2. Open Thunderbird, show #of messages in folder pane to (later) evidentiate issue
   Empty the first Inbox
3. Go to the second account Inbox and keep some messages there
4. Go back to the first. 

Actual Results:  
# of messages now is wrong.

Expected Results:  
# of messages should go back to 0.

This seems to affect more than # of messages. It causes the contents of folder
not to show the folder sometimes, may be because some code thinks the current
folder is empty when it's not.

Oops,
the problem seems to be caused by the importing of Netscape profiles.
Creating the profiles from scratch does not exhibit the issue.
Sorry!
