292870 - Crossposted newsgroup posts not marked read in all newsgroups in which they appear

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 43278

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Steve Sobol]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

Very simply, if a newsgroup post is posted to more than one group, Thunderbird
should be using the Xref header to determine where else it's posted and mark the
post read in the xposted groups too. It's not doing that; I have to mark the
crossposts read manually.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
-Subscribe to a newsgroup
-Find a crossposted message
-Make sure you're subscribed to at least one of the xposted groups
-Mark the message read in one group

Actual Results:  
I consistently observe that the crossposts are still marked unread

Expected Results:  
Should have marked the crossposts read too
