300108 - messages are counted twice when filter moves them into an IMAP folder that has "check for new messages" enabled

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Alexey N. Solofnenko]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050708 Firefox/1.0+
Build Identifier: version 1.0+ (20050708) Windows

Sometimes (often) the messages are counted twice - first when the messages are
moved, then as new messages in the folder. It looks like a race condition.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have a rule that move some messages in IMAP account into a subfolder
2. set "check for new messages" on that folder
3. send a message that triggers the rule

Actual Results:  
often unread message count is twice the actual number in the target folder.

Expected Results:  
the moved messages should be counted only once.

Maybe related to bug 284138 , but in this case the messages are unread.

WFM version 3 alpha 1 (20070130).  could be a dupe of something that was fixed, but hard to say without version dates.
