Details
(Keywords: dataloss)
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Thunderbird version 1.0 (20041206)
When Thunderbird's filters must write to an inaccessible folder (whatever
reason), an error message is displayed (complaining that the folder cannot be
written to) and the message is lost. It should be left in the inbox or in the
server.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Steps in WinXP 32 bits
1. Fill a folder with 2GB of messages (this is the maximum file size that
TB/WinXP can handle)
2. Setup a filter to move a message to the folder
3. Upon receiving a message that is caught by the filter, the message gets lost
by the filter.
Actual Results:
The messages caught by the filter targeting the folder are deleted
Expected Results:
The messages should be kept in the server (not deleted) or remain in the inbox
folder
Keywords: dataloss
Summary: The mail filter deletes the messege if target mail folder is not accessible or cannot be written to → The mail filter deletes the message if target mail folder is not accessible or cannot be written to (message is lost)
Version: unspecified → 1.0

Fernando, the not filtered mails should not be lost! Please take a look inside
the MBOX file. The mail should always be there, but is not visible within
Thunderbird. Can you confirm that? If yes, this bug is a dupe of bug 273778.

Henrik, yes, this bug is a dupe of bug 273778.
Never the less, the size limit of 2Gbytes should be noticed as well.
I do not know if this limit is the same in other plataforms (is this a OS issue
or TBird issue?)

Fernando, your issue (free space / file size) is covered in bug 195077. I
already marked this one as dupe.

Henrik, this doesn't seem to me a dupe of bug 195077, which is crash in filters or elsewhere when out of space. This bug is about losing mail from the source when out of space (or message move otherwise rejected) on the target.
Do you see it some other way?
