This may be a duplicate - bugzilla has been running for approx. 20 minutes with
no results other than please stand by.

I was working in my inbox deleating messages - 745 new messages in box.  It
froze in delete.  When I restarted the mail program there were zero messages in
my inbox.  This has happened several times over the course of the last month.

Reproducible: Didn't try

After freeze, how did you restart Mozilla? Did you killed the process or did you
reboot your OS? Did you check if the inbox file itself is not deleted (the
mailbox file in your Mozilla profile folder), only the prefs?

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.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
