484592 - Hovering over history sidebar items show user:pass@

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 130327

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect, P3)

Description

[Ed Lee :Mardak]

I noticed this when someone said the new tab page was showing user/pass information when hovering over sites.

I fixed it with bug 484588 by doing basically..

let text = uri.userPass ? uri.spec.replace(uri.userPass + "@", "") : uri.spec;

We should use createExposableURI if we're going to do this, but really we should just fix bug 130327 :)

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.
