60261 - Mail status in status bar is not shown correctly

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 53082

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect, P3)

Description

[Martin Heilmann]

From Bugzilla Helper German:

proposed Product: MailNews
proposed Component: Front End

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-AT; m18) Gecko/20001010
BuildID:    M18

Der Mailstatus ändert sich nur von "Neu" nach "Gelesen". Bei z.B. Beantworten
oder Weiterleiten der Mail wird der Staus dann nicht geändert und bleibt auf
"Gelesen"

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. empfangene Mail beantworten oder weiterleiten
2.
3.

Actual Results:  Mailstatus bleibt ungeändert

Expected Results:  Mailstatus aktualisieren

Bei importierten Mails aus voherigen NS-Versionen (NS4.7) wird der Mailstatus
(wie dort erzeugt) korrekt angezeigt

Assigning to proposed product/component.

Translation:

Mail Status changes only from "New" to "Read". E.g at replying or forwarding of
Messages the status doesn't change further and stays "read".

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. reply to or forward any Mail in your Mailbox

Actual Results:  Mail status doesn't change

Expected Results:  Mail status changes to "replied" or "forwarded"

At imported Mails from earlier NS Version (NS4.7) status shows up as created
there = as expected

reassigning to component owner and confirming.

Using nov16 commercial trunk build:
Works ok for me for reply -- changes status immediately to replied
Does not work for forward -- doesn't change to forwarded even after changing
folders and coming back.

Will look to see if there's an existing bug about forward status.
