Description

[José Josephus]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

Firefox deletes mail OK with first user folder that opens.  If I change to my
next user account folder (i.e. my next email account folder) Firefox won't
delete mails.  I must exit Firefox, and restart.  After deleting incoming junk
mail, I must exit Firefox again, restart, and go to next mail account folder.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.change to my next user account folder
2.move from mail to mail in in-basket
3.hilite bar moves, but it's dead (no display of message and no delete possible)

Actual Results:  
After changing to next mail folder, Firefox hilite will move from mail to mail,
but contents in window don't change, and mail can't be deleted.

Expected Results:  
It should drop to next email, display the email message, and delete the email
when delete key is pressed as requested

Firefox has nothing to do with email.


This sounds similar to bug 122854.

Exactly what procedure do you use to "change to my next user account folder" and 
"move from mail to mail in in-basket" -- are you selecting with the mouse, using 
the <tab> key or the 'N' key, or what?

I received somewhat incoherent mail from someone with a completely different 
name/address than that shown as Reporter above, which implied that he still can 
not tell the difference between Firefox and Thunderbird.  He failed to include 
the number of this bug anywhere in the email, forcing me to search for it.

Reporter, if you are this "Reilly" person, get a clue.  Do not provide 
information on the bug by email; post it on the bug's webpage.  I do not want 
email from you; I am not a support person.

Also, if you get response to your bug referencing a different bug, go read that 
bug first before providing any further information.
