367098 - Labels UI leaves blank entry on tag delete

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Preferences, defect)

Description

[Thomas Williams]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 Firefox/2.0.0.1
Build Identifier: version 2 alpha 1 (20060724)

When managing the preferences for different label types erroneous entries will appear when a label is deleted. The actual text is removed, but a blank entry remains in the preferences dialog, and on all drop-down "Tag" context menus.

Restarting the application tidies this up again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the options menu
2. Select Display -> Tags
3. Select a tag & click delete
4. Confirm and close.
5. Right-click on any email and hover over Tag
6. Note the erroneous blank entry where the previously deleted tag was.
Actual Results:  
The list becomes longer and longer when you add more entries with more whitespace appearing.

Expected Results:  
There should be no whitespace entries.

Please try a recent nightly, a lot of fixes have gone in since 2 alpha 1.
