regression from bug 419170

if a user disable the remember my history for at least X days we are setting history_expire_days= 0 but history_expire_days_min is 90

we are checking that history_expire_days is not less than history_expire_days_min to avoid deleting wrong visits, but we are not checking the special case in which it is 0.

bad privacy regression, require P1 blocker for beta5

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.
