Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, defect)

Description

[Tracy Walker [:tracy]]

Seen with Windows 1.0.1 branch Thunderbird build from 2005-03-08-08
sarah confirm it's on Mac from 2005-03-08-02

-Create a News & Blogs account
-In Firefox, go to http://www.livejournal.com/stats/latest-rss.bml
-Drag and drop the URL Favicon to the newly created News/Blogs account in
Thunderbird

test results: nothing happens

expected results:
The feed is verified, atricles are downloaded and the feed is added to News & Blogs

note: Manually adding RSS feeds in Manage subscriptions works fine.

I'm certain this is a regression.  But please don't ask me to find the
regression window.  I'm on dialup 'til the 11th

what I saw: I wasn't able to d'n'd an rss link into the Manage Subscriptions
dialog, but I was able to d'n'd an rss link into the News Feed Properties dialog.

also, while I cannot d'n'd an rss link into Manage Subscriptions, I can d'n'd an
rss link onto the RSS account in the folder pane (again, tested on Mac).

before I forget: the d'n'd issue into Manage subscriptions is bug 257580.

After a restart, this is working as expected for me now
