Description

[j]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9a9pre) Gecko/2007100205 Minefield/3.0a9pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9a9pre) Gecko/2007100205 Minefield/3.0a9pre

After clicking on bookmarks menu, clicking and holding a menu item (one of my bookmarks), and dragging it to a new location, such as bookmarks toolbar folder, the said submenu does not expand and so I cannot move or position the dragged item. The destination submenu already has a few items. Also, while dragging the item the color change happens for a submenu one below the submenu over which the mouse cursor is.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have any bookmark under main bookmarks menu
2. drag the this bookmark to any submenu of bookmarks
3.
Actual Results:  
submenu doesn't appear, not even a small rectangle signifying an empty submenu.

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.
