On trunk I'm not able to add any Live Bookmark. Following js warning are visible by starting Fx and trying to add a Live Bookmark:

can you elaborate on what happens?  

Do you not get the "Add Live Bookmark" dialog?

Or you do, but adding it does nothing?

(Let's spin this off to another bug.)

Seth, that was strange. At first I haven't seen that dialog and no Live Bookmark was added. But after removing all this warnings and reversing the changes I always can see that dialog. I don't know if something has been changed on my database that it works now. Sorry, but I cannot reproduce it anymore.

Henrik, thanks for the response.  See bug #380232, where occasionally I haven't see the Live Bookmark / Add Bookmark dialog.  Note, it is intermittent.  Could that be what you saw?

Lets move over to that bug. Seth, I already commented there.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
