Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Peter B]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-AT; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050721 SeaMonkey/1.0a
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-AT; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050721 SeaMonkey/1.0a

When copying a mail folder from one account over to another account,
same folder name, total number of mails count wrong.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Stop Seamonkey.
Copy folder file from account a to account b, but same folder, actually
overwrite the file in account b.
Start Seamonkey mail, click on folder, count is wrong.
Restart Seamonkey, total count is correct.

Actual Results:  
Total count for mails is count from old file + count in new file.
Example: folder "Sent" old has 5 mails, folder "Sent" new has 3 mails,
display count will be 8.

Expected Results:  
Total count display of 3.

Workarround: restart Seamonkey again, or delete MSF file when copying folder file.
Seems as if Mozilla 1.7.xx has different refresh method of MSF then Seamonkey.

Seamonkey 1.1 still has same effect.

As before, clicking on the folders sometimes resets the counter 
to correct value. In most cases, Stop/Restart solves the wrong counter, 
but only if folder was selected before.
