300195 - If I disable "Disk Space" setting of a POP3 account, MozillaAS does not download messages larger than the specified value

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Preferences, defect)

Description

[Wagner Shimatai de Medio]

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

If I enable "Disk Space" setting of a POP3 account and I try to download all
messages, Mozilla will not download messages larger than a specified value
(e.g.: 1024KB).

So, after downloading with this setting enabled, Mozilla did not downloaded
messages larger than 1 MB, then I tried to disable it (unchecking the checkbox
"Messages larger than [1024] KB" in preference window) and downloaded again
(because I had messages with 3 MB in my POP3 account). Mozilla did not download
the remaining messages (larger than 1 MB). Mozilla only downloads if I change
the value to 5 MB.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable "Disk Space" setting in Edit ---> Mail & Newsgroup Account Settings
--->  (choose a POP3 Account) ---> Disk Space ---> [x] Messages larger than
[1024] KB.
2. Download all messages. Be sure you have some messages larger than 1 MB in
your POP3 account.
3. After download all small messages, go back to account setting and disable
"Disk Space", unchecking the checkbox "Messages larger than [1024] KB".
4. Try to download again. Mozilla will not download the messages (larger than 1
MB) remaining in your mailbox.
5. Go back to account settings and change the value (1024 KB = 1 MB) to (5120 KB
= 5 MB).
6. Try to download again. Now Mozilla will download all messages larger than 1 MB.
Actual Results:  
Mozilla behaved as described.

Expected Results:  
Download all messages, ignoring the old setting.

I have the same problem under Thunderbird 1.0.6 Win32.

If you view the option, the checkbox is cleared, but the size box is not grayed out as before enabling the option.

It is work fine, now.

Wagner and Gert, is this still a valid bug?
