378658 - context menu "move to ... again" is disabled

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

version 3.0a1 (20070421)

sometimes the context menu item for "move/copy to <folder> again" is disabled. I don't yet know under what conditions.  Restarted in safe mode, the menu item is enabled. Start in normal mode, the menu item is still enabled. 

I almost never use the context menu in the thread pane or on a message, so impossible to say when it started - whether it's always been a problem, or a regression or perhaps even due to an extension.

Wayne,

look into bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378623 maybe related to yours.

I don't know if this is related, but "Move Again" no longer shows the folder that is the object of the move.  First noticed this in 2.0.0.14.  Previously right-clicking showed "Move to folder-name again" where "folder-name was the destination folder.  Without showing the folder-name the move-again feature is close to useless.

I don't see comment 3 on trunk.
my problem was always on trunk, so bug 378623/comment 1 might not be relevant - can't say for sure.

still see this. context menu reappears on restart.
note, message|move to xxxxx (again) in command menu is fine.
I don't use branch often enough to confirm comment 2.

confirming, though I still don't know how to recreate.

In my case it turns out that problem was caused by a bug in the Reminderfox add-on.  That Reminderfox bug was corrected and things work as expected again.

I haven't seen this in a long time.
