506953 - Unread message count not updated for search folders

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 372372

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

[tdionne]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.12) Gecko/2009070811 Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Firefox/3.0.12
Build Identifier: 

This is reproducible with Thunderbird 2 and 3beta3.  The unread message count is not dynamically updated for a search folder (works fine for any other folder).




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure an IMAP account and get new messages. (I have not tested with POP)
2. Inbox must contain some unread messages.
3. Create a search folder, searching the Inbox, that will also contain some unread messages.
4. Click on the search folder.
5. Now, select an unread message for viewing.
Actual Results:  
Message list line changes from bold to regular.
Inbox unread count decreased by 1.
Search folder unread count stays the same.

Expected Results:  
Message list line changes from bold to regular.
Inbox unread count decreased by 1.
Search folder unread count decreased by 1.

I have to click on another folder, and then back to the search folder to get it to update the unread count.

This happens with threaded or unthreaded view.

Unexplainable, but this is working in Thunderbird 2 now, but not in Thunderbird 3 beta 3.
