521418 - Collapsed threads are remain open after quitting and starting thunderbird again (in threads-only folder)

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

[Matěj Cepl]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090911 Fedora/3.5.3-1.fc12 Firefox/3.5.3
Build Identifier: thunderbird-3.0-2.7.b4.fc11.i586

(originally filed as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=527909)

My thread control is "View->Threads->All". After having collapsed some specific
thread by having clicked an the small triangle in the subject column, the
thread becomes hidden. But if I quit thunderbird in such a situation and
starting it again, the thread is completely shown again without I clicked on
the thread triangle.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Hide some thread by clicking on the thread triangle in the subject column (in folder which contains just threads)
2.Quit thunderbird
3.Start thunderbird again

Actual Results:  
The thread now is uncollapsed


Expected Results:  
The specific thread remains collapsed

The original folder found out that this behaviour only occurs if that folder containing the thread does not contain another additional mail: if there is at least one additional mail in the folder, a collapsed thread remains collapsed after quitting and restarting thunderbird.

Is this a regression from Tb 2.0 ?
