Ctrl+Drag a message causes a crash.  Used IMAP->IMAP same server.

1.  Launch and go to mail window, select IMAP inbox and select a message.
2.  Ctrl+drag the message to another folder on the same server.

Result:  crash occurs.

Waiting to access Talkback to get report details.

Pardon my ignorance, how is ctrl-drag different from unmodified drag?  Is there
a reason this wouldn't be an M15 stopper?

Provisionally marking M15.

ctrl+drag is a copy when it's the same IMAP server.

Comment 4

[chuang]

Ctrl+drag is never implemented in the code.  I don't think this should be a M15 
stopper.  I can't get the crash to happen so far.  I'll keep trying and see if I 
can figure out where's the crash.

Correct my comment,  I tried on NT not Linux.  I'm not sure if the D&D work on 
Linux yet.   Bug 27295 (DND doesn't work in mail/news on linux) is still open.  
Move this bug to M16.

Removing from M15 stopper radar.

blizzard, is Linux Mail DnD working soon? ;-)

Comment 8

[Christopher Blizzard (:blizzard)]

Yeah, that looks like my bug.  Regular D&D works in mail/news on linux.  I use
it every day.  Didn't know about the ctrl key feature.

Comment 9

[Christopher Blizzard (:blizzard)]

I checked in a fix for the crash.  It was something simple, just an
uninitialized variable.

However, the transferrable array is empty that is passed in to the drag.  I'm
not sure why.
