I have several RSS feeds set to download articles at startup and every 10
minutes, and they used to work fine, but once I installed 1.5 beta 1, they
re-download the same articles each time I start Thunderbird.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set RSS feeds to check on startup.
2. Close Thunderbird.
3. Open Thunderbird.
4. Close Thunderbird again.
5. Open Thunderbird again.

Actual Results:  
The articles were downloaded each time Thunderbird started.

Expected Results:  
The articles should have been downloaded only once.

RSS feeds used:
http://rss.allrecipes.com/2/1.xml
http://rss.allrecipes.com/2/3.xml
http://rss.allrecipes.com/2/6.xml
http://rss.allrecipes.com/2/7.xml

Note that I was using Beta 1, as I am waiting for the auto-update to install Beta 2.
Actually, it doesn't download them every time, just multiple times.  I'm not
sure what triggers the re-downloading.
