Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

The subject of a news post I made does not appear correctly. The source of the
message seems to indicate that this is probably displaying fine for other
recipients of the message.

See:

It illustrates the bug much better than I am able to describe.

Reproducible: Didn't try

We need some more information. Can you reproduce it everytime you click that
certain message? Also, how are you accessing that message? Just by clicking on
the title in the message list?

"Can you reproduce it everytime you click that certain message?"
Yes, it appears that way in the list of messages even after re-starting
thunderbird, and even before selecting the message.

"Also, how are you accessing that message? Just by clicking on the title in the
message list?"
Clicking, arrow keys, not selecting it at all. The subject appears properly in
the message pane when it is selected, however.

There does not seem to be any action I can take that will make it display
properly in the list of posts.

Weird.  That subject header is straight ASCII, and after copying it into my mail 
folders, the subject displays correctly with TB TB 1.0.5 and 1.0+0715.  
I subscribed to that newsgroup and found the message; the subject appears 
correctly there as well.

xref bug 301830, but I don't think this bug is the same as that.
