296264 - Deleting RSS feed from RSS subscriptions leaves folder, messages

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, defect)

Description

[Thomas K. (:tom)]

version 1.0+ (20050601) (tinderbox, got around noon cdt)

I finally added an RSS feed (The Register's) and decided I didn't want it, since
checking the box for "Show only the rss summary instead of downloading the page"
wasn't working (was going to remove/readd).  The feed is gone, but a folder "The
Register" still exists, contains the messages, and refuses to be deleted from a
right click delete or the subscription manager.

As you can see, there's no RSS feed selected (though the folder is opened in
the manage window), and I still have the RSS feed.  I cannot right click and
delete it, even though it is an empty folder which used to contain the register
feed in it.  :(

installed a new 6/2/2005 5:something PM version of thunderbird from
patrocles-trunk, and i was now able to 'confirm' deleting the rss feed, it
actually went to the trash, and was able to empty the trash.  don't know what
fixed it, but marking WFM
