For some reasons the news server address has been changed from symbolic form to
its IP address in the news account. After that all the information filed for all
news groups from this server selected for offline reading has been erased by
Thunderbird without any notification.
Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select some news groups for offline reading
2. Download gigabytes of vital information from them
3. Change the server address, e.g. from symbolic form (say, news.domain.com) to
its IP address
Actual Results:
All the downloaded information is erased, msf files are erased.
Expected Results:
Information is kept alive, or at least, erasing must be confirmed before it is done

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.
If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
