I haven't narrowed it down completely yet, but often the selection in the server/folder location selector doesn't work. It gets stalled on one item in the select and will not change until you leave the widget and come back.
Anything in the Error Console? Could something be happening here where we don't switch to the folder because it's loading (IMAP or a large folder)?
those are both likely possibilities. i speculated when talking with mscott that it was due to some activity on one of my accounts (downloading message headers, junk analysis, etc.) 

I'll try to watch for it and get a reproducible testcase. 
I have encountered this while running tests on the file location widget, going from local folder back to gmail folder causes it at least 50% of the time.
reasonably sure this is a regression. 
tried to find a matching toolkit bug, but not successful so far.

bug 362354 is pop, so if it is a correct dup (cause being same) then this bug is not imap only.

don't have a testcase.

Asa, you appear to be the earliest report of this. Do you recall approx what build you were using at the time?


Anyone see this in version 1.5?

Interesting parallel to bug 319062. However, bug 319062 behavior consistently fails, whereas this bug's behavior is not consistent (but then, we don't have a reproducible testcase either).
this should be bug 385536  which is fixed on trunk
