276374 - empty cards in lists block new entries

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Thunderbird :: Address Book, defect)

Description

[Heine Svendsen]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1)
Build Identifier: 20041206

In an adress book with lists you will find the following problem.
You delete a card from the addres book. If this card was also in a list, there 
will be an empty card left over in the list. If this empty card is not also 
deleted, additional cards added to the list will be invisible untill the empty 
card is deleted.
I have had other cards block new entries if they are for instance written with 
strange characters or oterwise have erros in the format.

Reproducible: Always

Looks like bug 152133 (as I understand it, the codebase is shared, but I'm not
sure).

Well - it's the same bug, but bug 152133 doesn't mention, that additional 
cards added to the list with the blank cards will not be seen until the blank 
card is deleted. After that all cards added after the "blank card deleted" 
will suddenly show up. They can actullay be seen in the mailing (if you double 
click on the name of the list) but not in the entries of the list in the 
windows to the right of the name of the list.
I should have added this to the bug already reported, but did not find it when 
I seached.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
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
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
