484088 - No scrolling when message dragged to bottom of folder list

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

[Mark Surman]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.7) Gecko/2009030423 Ubuntu/8.10 (intrepid) Firefox/3.0.7
Build Identifier: thunderbird-3.0b3pre.en-US

In previous versions of Thunderbird, dragging an individual message to the bottom of the folder list would cause the folder list to scroll. You could then drag into a specific folder once that folder appeared. This feature does not seem to be working in Thunderbird 3. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on a message in inbox or other folder
2. Drag to bottom of folder list
3. This should cause scroll but does not
Actual Results:  
Does note scroll

Expected Results:  
Folder list should scroll

This is WFM on 20090318. Suse Linux - local folders pop account.

Mark are you folder local or on an imap server ?

Happens with both local folders and IMAP in the same pane. Dragging from IMAP to local or IMAP folder. 

As I play with this more, it turns out that the scrolling does work sometimes, but I can't get it to work other times. 

It seems to be something related to where the cursor is actually positioned to trigger the scrolling ... like TB3 is looking for a more specific or accurate positioning than TB2 was.

In any case, still failing to scroll more than half the time.
