Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Calendar :: Lightning Only, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2a1pre) Gecko/20090223 Firefox/3.2a1pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1b3pre) Gecko/20090225 Lightning/1.0pre Thunderbird/3.0b3pre

With Lightning installed (--enable-calendar in .mozconfig), the list of accounts in the 'File' / 'Get New Messages for' dropdown menu gets doubled when switching mail and tasks tabs. If the Mail Toolbar is disabled, this applies also to the calendar tab.

This duplication doesn't persist across restarts of Thunderbird. I don't see it happening without Lightning.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the tasks tab (Ctrl+4)
2. Switch back to the mail tab(s)
3. Click on 'File' / 'Get New Messages for'
4. Switch back to the tasks tab again
5. back to 

or

1. Disable the Mail Toolbar ('View' / 'Toolbars' / '[ ] Mail Toolbar')
2. Open the calendar tab (Ctrl+3)
3. Switch back to the mail tab
4. Click on 'File' / 'Get New Messages for'
5. Switch back to the calendar tab again
6. back to step 3.

Actual Results:  
Each iteration in the loop adds a new duplicate of the account list in 'File' / 'Get New Messages for' dropdown menu.


Expected Results:  
No such duplication.

The last step of the first set of STR suffered an unintentional deletion: it should be

5. back to step 2

My apologies for the bugspam.

Confirming - even with the initial STR (customize toolbar), but only with Lightning enabled...

Martin, can you look into this bug?

Don't see the bug with

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1pre) Gecko/20090620 Lightning/1.0pre Thunderbird/3.0b3pre

SourceStamp=d285993e5dab

anymore, but the issue was still there in my previous local build (SourceStamp=9b0a71e2f698)

Probably solved by the landing of Bug 456385. Marking as FIXED for now.
