User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

When one clicks several times in a saved search folder and, the folder is still
"working" to fetch it's results... then it crashs (1st time it happened with a
2*doubleclick, next try, it took a bit more clicks).


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create search folder with a search patern that takes a bit to update;
2. Click on it repeatedly.

Actual Results:  
Thunderbird crashed

Expected Results:  
Every click should had stoped the previous update, cleaned it's task and start a
new "update" task.

Some sort of "waiting for updating" message would prevent the click happy crash.

Also of benefice would be some sort of "cache" of the results (mayhappen when
one opens the folder they appear in gray, because aren't "refreshed"). In the
background, the search engine is "refreshing" the search and updating it's results.

This may be a duplicate of Bug Bug 273560 and Bug 290851, which have now been
fixed, so this bug may have been fixed as well. I suggest you test the latest
nightly trunk build.
I am unable to produce this problem with Thunderbird nightly trunk build
04-May-2005 1152.
I can confirm that with build version 1.0+ (20050504) the problem doesn't happen
anymore.

I've also checked the other bugs reported and in fact seamed like this is
somewhat a duplicate of them (even if reported regarding another build, etc).
Should be fixed with TB 1.5 builds.
