607486 - When opening an IMAP-Folder, Thunderbird doesn't immediately jump the the last message (but waits/loads for some seconds)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 520272

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

[dfghjkjhg]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; de; rv:1.9.2.11) Gecko/20101012 Firefox/3.6.11
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; de; rv:1.9.2.11) Gecko/20101013 Lightning/1.0b2 Thunderbird/3.1.5

I am accessing my e-mail-account via IMAP.
All messages in all of my IMAP-folders (e. g. "sent messages" or "trash") are sorted that way, that the latest message is at the bottom.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Whenever I open an IMAP-folder, Thunderbird needs some time (2 - 3 seconds) to go to the bottom of the IMAP-folder.

Expected Results:  
After opening an IMAP-folder, immediately jump to the bottom of that IMAP-folder (= latest message).

Just found an Add-On which implements this quite well:
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/thunderbird/addon/246793/
But should become a standard functionality in TB.

Seems that this has been fixed meanwhile
(tested with TB 5.0b2pre from June 2nd, 2011)

I'm still having this bug with Icedove 38.8.
