Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[glen finch]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

I turned on headers "all" and am now unable to un-check this option to return to normal.

I have tried closing the ap and restarting and rebooting the computer without success. I have tried altering this with a specific email open and in the general 3 pane view.

I am using the default thunderbird theme.

all headers remain visible in emails and the option is selected until an email is selected and "forward" is chosen. The forwarded mail then displays the normal headers.

Headers pane then displays "normal" only, although view > headers still shows "all" as selected

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Thunderbird: select view > headers > all (select to view all)
2. view email, expand headers pane (in 3 pane view - preview window)
3. select view > headers > all (de-select)
4. expand headers pane (all visible).
5. select "forward" email, shows normal headers only
6. expand headers pane (normal visible)
7. view > headers > all (still selected)

Actual Results:  
headers all is permanently selected. all headers appear in forward messages and by expanding the headers pane. Only by choosing forward email do the headers return to normal. view > headers pane still shows "all" as ticked.

Expected Results:  
clicking "all" when it is already selected/ticked should toggle it to being deselected/not ticked.
