332710 - Same old mail download every time I open Thunderbird

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Patricia Drumm]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Thunderbird 1.5

Every time I open Thunderbird I receive 62 old messages in my inbox.  I delete them, empty the trash and compact all folders.  When I reopen Thunderbird, the same 62 messages are there again.  What do I do?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Thunderbird.
2.Messages download automatically or select "get mail".
3.Receive same 62 messages that were deleted previously.

Actual Results:  
Receive old emails.

Expected Results:  
Deleted messages and downloaded only new, unread emails.

Updated Internet Explorer 6.0 due to a message from Mozilla at a site I was trying to enter.  Did not have this problem before the updgrade but may have been a coincidence.

Reporter, does this issue still occur in the latest supported 2.0.0.x / Shredder trunk nightlies?

(1.5.0.x is now end-of-life, and the latest supported 2.0.0.x is 2.0.0.16)
