266834 - Folders get crazy when creating folders with russian names (in english build)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 264071

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Dmitry Grigoriev]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1

Folders with russian names are processed incorrectly. They duplicate after
restarting Thunderbird, so i need to delete one of them (this bug is
reproducible, see steps). 

But there are more situations that i can't describe definitely. Russian folders
behave crazy... it looks much like corrupted index in database. For example, now
i cannot create folder "Personal" (in russian translation, of course) because
when i try i get error "Folder already exists". But both of these folders were
already deleted... or renamed to "Forums"... sorry i don't remember.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install english Thunderbird 0.8 over (russian) WindowsXP.
2. Run Thunderbird and create new email account.
3. Create some folders with russian names.
4. Restart Thunderbird.
Actual Results:  
All folders with russian names will appear twice.

please try the latest 1.0 branch build:

I believe this has been fixed very recently.
