Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

A language feed with Chinese characters in the title, specifically
http://chinese.dreamsofwhitetiles.com/wp-commentsrss2.php, still appears in my
list of feeds, even though I've deleted it and emptied the trash.  It only
appears in the main list of feeds, however, and not in the "Manage
Subscriptions" section of the RSS area.

I have no problem deleting feeds with titles that have only standard English
characters.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a feed with Chinese characters in the title to Thunderbird's list of RSS
feeds
2. Delete it from the main window's list of RSS folders, the folder should
appear in the trash
3. Empty the trash
4. Close and restart Thunderbird

Actual Results:  
The Chinese character-titled feed remained listed in the main window's RSS
folder list.

Expected Results:  
The feed, supposedly deleted, should not have appeared in the main window's RSS
folder list.
