Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Abid Saigol]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
Build Identifier: 2.0.0.6 (20070728)

A Duplicate message is created in the destination folder for each Group pane in source view.  Example: Source folder is sorted by date and "Grouped by Sort" is selected.  I copy/move two messages by selecting across the "Yesterday" group separator.  In the destination folder, a duplicate message is created for each Group Separator that the selection crosses.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Sort Folder by Date
2. Select Grouped by Sort
3. Move messages from Today as well as Yesterday, i.e. cross the selection across a Group Separator.

Actual Results:  
There was a duplicate message in the destination folder.

Expected Results:  
There should be no duplicate message created

Bug has existed across previous major releases of Thunderbird.

I upgraded today to: version 2.0.0.14 (20080421)

I am still seeing the same bug.

Is there a way for me to send/upload screen shots?

not really needed for this, but create screen shot (png is nice size) and find "Add an attachment"

Can you reply to comment #2?

You use pop3 or imap?

You can try with TB 3.0 beta?

Sorry for lack of response to previous comment.

I have tested today with:
version 2.0.0.23 (20090812)

Still seeing the same problem.

I have tried the above steps in two folders located within 'Local Folders', and I have tried the same thing from an IMAP folder to 'Local Folders'.

I have tried using drag and drop, as well I have tried using Messages->Copy->(folder tree).

In all instances, when the source message selection crosses one of the Group separator lines in Group View, a duplicate message is created in the target folder.

I am going to try and upload some screenshots using 'Add an attachment'.

I installed version 3 as recommended above and tried the same, and the problem is fixed on my computer in this new version.
