Details

When the preference for an account is to only download headers, then this e-mail
goes to the junk inbox, and then you decide to download the whole message from
the server (from the junk inbox), this and some previous e-mails in the junk
inbox get lost (deleted!)

(Q1) What is your Thuderbird version or build ID?

     Mail folder named "Junk"? Or mail folder named "Inbox"?

(Q4) If yes for (Q3), do you enable other options for deleting mails
     from server?
     - Option to delete mail from server when moved from Inbox to other folder
     - Option to delete mail from server after NN days from download

     Are there any retention period setting/option on your mail server?
(Q6) Who moved the mail to Junk folder?
     - Junk control? Or Message filter?(Mark as Junk) Or you moved manually?
 
Can you attach your prefs.js entries for the account?
 - mail.identity.idMM.xxxxxxxx entries

Please replace your servername and your username by xxxx.yyyy.zzzz etc. before
attach for your privacy and security.
Q1: Version 1.0 (20041206)
Q2: mail folder named JUNK
Q3: NO
Q5: NO
Q6: Junk control

I don´t know which account it was. I keep trying to reproduce such a situation,
but I fail. Mark: there were some e-mails in the junk folder  before. I clicked
on "download" for a new e-mail, (there was its only header in the junk folder),
then instead of doing it, this header and two or three of the e-mails above
(earlier) desapeared from the junk folder.
(Q7) Do you use "Global Inbox"?
(Q8) If yes, which is "Global Inbox", "Locla Folders" or specific account?
Similar situation to Bug 249361.
This is test result in my testing of "Fetch header only" function in the past.
I think result on latest Mozilla/Thunderbord will be different because my test
was done half a year ago.
