306712 - Search folders over IMAP folders don't refresh dynamically

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Peter Wisnovsky]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/312.5 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/312.3

I've observed this with both Windows and OSX. I have search folders based on an IMAP folder. 
Configuration on these folders is to dynamically search the base folder on open. The problem is that 
mail arrives in the IMAP box and the counts of unread messages on the search folders are not updated. 
Also I often have to go in and out of the mailbox a couple of times if I've selected "View: Unread" in the 
search folder, since it will often only show me the Read messages instead of the Unread ones (!)



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. configure imap folder
2. set up search folders with dynamic read
3. recieve mail

Actual Results:  
counts of unread in search folders did not add up to the same as the imap folder

Expected Results:  
count of unread of search folders should have been the same as the imap folder

Yes, every messages was selected into one and only one search folder

Mike, do you see this?

Reporter reports: "My account doesn't use IMAP any more so I have no way of knowing."
