40804 - Sidebar says "Loading..." forever

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Security, defect, P3)

Description

[Stephen Rasku]

On "My Sidebar" it the bottom left corner, it displays "Loading..." with a
rotating circle.  This never goes away and I don't know exactly what it is
loading.  I notice that it has an IMAP folder above for my work address but that
is behind a firewall and I can't get to it unless I set my proxy to be my work
firewall.  I don't generally do this (on purpose) except to get to my work e-
mail or to get to an internal web-server because it reduces my available bandwidth.

Seen on Linux build 2000052608.

Does the sidebar "loading" problem occur in the browser window?  It sounds like 
you are reporting a few different things here:
1.  sidebar "loading"
2.  imap folder (which shouldn't have to do w/ the sidebar item)

We did have a previous bug on the "loading" of the sidebar.  I will have to 
search for it later.

It occurs for the sidebar in the Mail/News window.  I am reporting the
"Loading..." problem.  I didn't know what it was loading (I thought it might be
loading the email/news folders) so I mentioned the IMAP information in case it
was relevant.
