505664 - TB 3.0b3 RSS not working properly

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, defect)

Description

[Alex Lipford]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.1) Gecko/20090715 Firefox/3.5.1 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: Thunderbird 3.0b3

After upgrade to 3.0b3, all old RSS subscriptions (Engadget and CNET News.com) no longer open properly.  When opening, the web page would correctly open in the reading pane but the a box would pop up saying that the subscription was of an old format and that the summary would not work.  You could click the ok button on the box and it would go away and the web page in the reading pane would be perfect and waiting on you to read it.  To try adn fix this problem, I deleted me subscriptions and then added them back.  Now Thunderbird will ONLY show the summary of the article.  There is nothing I can do to make it show the entire article as Thunderbird 3.0b2 did.  This needs to be fixed ASAP as the RSS reader was the main reason for me not using Outlook.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.In Firefox, go to CNET.com and click on the news link.
2.Click on the RSS icon and subscribe to it through Thunderbird 3.0b3
3.When you try and read the feed, only the article summary shows up.
Actual Results:  
You only see the article summary instead of the web page no matter whether you select for Thunderbird 3.0b3 to show the web page.

Expected Results:  
The web page should open in the reading pane as it did in 3.0b2

I'm not sure but I think that this is deliberate: I see a summary page and a body of message and in msgHeaders you can click on url for visitate the w3 page.

Subscribing to the URL in 3.0b3 show's me the complete web page. 

In View->Feed message body -> what is is configured on ?

I also have problems viewing the feed properly. The last Version of Thunderbird properly displaying RSS was 3.0b2. - 3.0b3 and 3.0b4 both have problems.
I use Win XP.

Alex, do you still see this?  can we have a better summary than "not working properly"?  is this different from bug 388919?
