412763 - Tagged site only appears in the URLbar autocomplete after typing the last letter of the tag

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 401660

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Ria Klaassen (not reading all bugmail)]

I've made a tag for a site that only appears in the URLbar autocomplete list after typing the last letter.

For instance: I visited by chance the site http://www.merkawah.nl/ , I tagged it with the two words "bijna dood" (both are common words). But when I start typing the words everything disappears after typing  b i j n a  d o ..  and the site only appears after finishing the last word  d o o d.

I would have expected that the tagged site would appear in the dropdown after typing  b i j n a.

Maybe the component should have been Location Bar and Autocomplete, I don't know.

I think this is the main issue of the other bug.

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.
