since downloading thunderbird version 3 to 3.04 my sent folder first started displaying emails sent in 2006. even though it was sent in 2010.  Then it corrected itself, and then failed in the same manner.  Now the latest update is in March 14, 2010, It did correct it self, but then reverted back to the latest email of March 14, 2010, and is not changing, even though I have sent many emails since March 14, 2010.  I have sent many emails complaining about this, and apparently other people have the same problem.  In fact, I saw one comment where thunderbird acknowledged this problem.  Could you please let me know if you are working on this problem.  Harold

Looks like this may be a duplicate of bug 521084. Can you cross-check?

bug 521084 closed incomplete, so not duping.

Harold, => incomplete
not our preferred method of resolving bugs, but not much choice with no response from reporter.
if you still see the problem, please add more detail, based on usage of version

Hi,

As far as I know, you never responded to my problem.  It took a few weeks, but I fixed it my self.  

I am serious, I did not receive a reply to my problem.  And, from the emails I received, many people have the same problem as I did.

Why didn't I get a response from you???????????

Thanks for the update. 

a response was sent within days of your bug report. see comment 2. you apparently also missed bug 553745 comment 2. 

We can't determine why you didn't get it but the possibilities include 
* your bugmail settings are not great - REPORTER column of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email should be set to send you mails
* your bugmail is going to spam folder
* accidental deletion

=> WFM per reporter
