Description

[Dr. Matthias Spanier]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041122 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041206 Thunderbird/1.0 Mnenhy/0.7.1

Hello,

cf. message ID <[e-mail]>.

Thunderbird 1.0 with the extensions
| MessageID-Finder 1.9.9
| Mnenhy 0.7.1
| Quote Colors DE 0.2.6
| adressContext DE 0.6
| MozillaCalendar 0.8.3+
| MagicSLR 0.9.0
| ConQuery 1.5.1

Settings of MessageID Finder:

| Standard-Newsserver [...]: (keiner)
| [X] Nachrichten in neuem Fenster öffnen

Under certain circumstances, MessageID-Finder does not display a message.

Display the posting <[e-mail]>.
In the body of that posting, right-click to
| Message-ID: <d0cotb$vvv$01$[e-mail]>

A contect menu appears. Choose

| Suche Nachricht Per ID

Then choose the server news.t-online.de.
A popup appears having the window title

| Anfrage für ein externes Protokoll

and the text

| Eine externe Anwendung muß für news Links gestartet werden.
| Angefragter Link: [...]
| Wenn Sie diesen Link nicht angefragt haben, könnte es sich
| um einen Angriff auf eine Schwachstelle eines anderen
| Programms handeln. [...]

In that popup, click the button

| Starte Anwendung

A new Thudnerbird window opens with a tree displeying the mail and news accounts
and the respective mail folders resp. newsgroups. But the message ID which I
wanted to display does not appear.

Regards, Matthias

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
The software should have displayed the message ID I had chosen and I had wanted
to be found by the MessageID-Finder.

Workaround:
Customize the MessageID finder settings such that
Folgendes klappt:
MessageID-Finder mit der Einstellung

| Standard-Newsserver [...]: (keiner)
| [ ] Nachrichten in neuem Fenster öffnen

i.e. messages are _not_ opened in a new window but in the same window.
Now the cliked message is displayed. This works.

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.
