467063 - Folder pane exposes folder names in raw unicode during/after startup

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 450754

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Thomas Stache]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1b3pre) Gecko/20081127 Minefield/3.1b3pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; de-DE; rv:1.9.1b3pre) Gecko/20081127 Lightning/1.0pre Shredder/3.0b1pre

I have an IMAP account with folders containing German umlauts. Current Thunderbird/Shredder builds list folders "escaped" in the folder pane (like the folder names appear in prefs.js when viewed e.g. with Notepad editor) after/during startup.

After the startup churn dies down this corrects itself, probably on the next invalidation of the tree.
I'll attach a screenshot.

Reproducible: Always

Two folder names are messed up, e.g. "Gel&APY-scht" instead of "Gelöscht".

DUP of Bug 450754, isn't it?

Yeah, that's likely. But the other bug has such a strange title, that it didn't show up in my searches...
