Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Thunderbird :: Preferences, defect)

Description

[u29838]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; sk; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061023 SUSE/2.0-68.1 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: 20061214 (2.0 b1)

Thunderbird hangs, when new mail arrives, Show an alert is checked and other than default theme is used.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In Edit -> Preferences -> General -> When new message arrive: check Show an alert, press Customize button and check all types
2. Choose another theme as default (I have used Noia 2.0 Extreme 2.30 and Walnut 1.7)
3. New mail must arrive

Actual Results:  
Thunderbird hangs (must be killed) and started again

Expected Results:  
Message alert is shown (as when using default theme)

When using default Thunderbird 2.0 theme, it works correct.

Just guessing, but there was a similar problem (crash, sometimes hang) with the default theme (bug 362225), maybe the Noia theme need to do a similar workaround as in bug 332160 last patch...

Does it still hang if you turn off notification on new mail?

It happens not only with Noia theme, but also with Walnut theme. When I turn off notifications on new mail, everything works correctly (no hang or crash). With default theme mail notifications works correctly.

I have the same problem on Ubuntu Feisty 7.04 (Linux) - no filters. Thunderbird
2.0 always freezes after retrieving all mails for an account. It is *extremely*
annoying. Theme: Azerty 3.0.1

When using default 2.0 theme problem disappears.

With 20070613 it seems to be working correctly :-)

->INVALID (FIXED is used only when known code changes resolved the issue)

And also in general this is invalid, as it's a theme bug.

It also working for me using 2.0.0.4 (20070615) on Fedora 7, with Phoenity theme.
