That happens when you use a localstore.rdf of a previous non-places build where you had reorganized your toolbars or icons. Deleting the file will help but I'm afraid this will not be an acceptable solution for most of the users.

Seems to have been fixed in the 20060304 trunk.  WFM.

Well it works with a new profile but otherwise I had to delete localstore.rdf a second time (thx for the tip Ria).

I'm not seeing this, even if I follow these instructions.  It sounds like a JavaScript error has occurred in the BrowserToolboxCustomizeDone() function in browser.js, before the menubar gets re-enabled.  Do you get any JavaScript errors when you close the customize palette?  I see one in reporter.js about gBrowser not being defined when I open the palette, but it doesn't seem to have any affect.

I saw only the missing stuff in the customize window but this was fixed by one of the other similar bugs filed at the same time. I've never seen the disabled menus.

Marking this fixed, since I think it was fixed by the fixes to bugs 327479 and 327364. If anybody sees the disabled menus problem please re-open, and post JavaScript errors if possible.

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.
