298266 - Used a filter to move messages from INBOX to a different box. UNREAD count gets updated but I can't see the message in the new box.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 284292

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[maylfox]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; FIPID-x89siWaFXiV.Ix88W/V.ixT/ss; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla Thunderbird version 1.0.2

I use a filter to move messages (read or unread) from the INBOX.  On occasion I 
have run it and messages get moved but I don't see it in the folder that 
messages have been moved to.  The folder currently specifies that I have 4 
unread messages but I cannot see them.  I know they should be there because 
they were in the INBOX but once moved via the filter, they have disappeared.  
Doesn't happen all the time so can't tell you how to recreate it.  It has 
happened to me a couple of times already.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a filter to move messages from INBOX to a different folder
2.Retrieve mail into INBOX
3.Run filter against INBOX

Actual Results:  
It appears that messages get moved but when I go to the folder, it isn't 
there.  If the message is unread, the UNREAD count goes up.  But the message 
isn't there.  Not sure if it only happens to UNREAD messages or both types.  If 
I am missing READ messages, I don't know about it.

Expected Results:  
Move messages and I should see them.
