318674 - folders can be incorrectly treated as duplicates of items

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Brian Ryner (not reading)]

We're setting the mID of folder nodes to the folder id.  This is wrong since that member is compared with item ids for purposes of collapsing duplicates (and there's a separate method to extract a folder id).

on second thought, we can just remove that line since the id is initialized to 0

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
