(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

[Robert Campbell]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042316 Firefox/3.0.10 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: version 2.0.0.21 (20090302)

I searched the Inbox (IMAP remote server) for a common sender.
I create a Folder to put them in which is located on my local network.
I drag the messages from the "Search Messages" results and drop into the new folder.
The Folder now shows the correct number of messages but all the messages are blank.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. I searched the Inbox (IMAP remote server) for a common sender.
2. I create a Folder to put them in which is located on my local network.
3. I drag the messages from the "Search Messages" results and drop into the new folder.
Actual Results:  
The Folder now shows the correct number of messages but all the messages are blank. It appears the the messages have disappeared.

Expected Results:  
It should have displayed the messages just fine.

I was able to fix this with a simple text editor. What happened was the 1st 3 lines of every message was listed 1st. Then the messages were listed below that list. I just Moved the lines starting with "Return-Path:" to the line just before the next "Return-Path" To the proper heading. After joining these parts back together again all my messages were fine even with attachments.

Attachment: I only included 1 1/2 messages but I think you can see the problem.

I removed most of the messages for security and privacy reasons.
I was able to recover all of my messages in that folder.
Sorry I couldn't attache the whole document but from this information you should see the problem.

Robert, can you try and see if this still occurs with Thunderbird 3 Beta 2?

I have installed Thunderbird 3 Beta 2 and the problem seems to be fixed. All messages moved properly.
