Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

Build Identifier: 

I'm running step 4 in the virtual folder Litmus test cases, which checks that new mail will show up in a virtual folder. I'm testing Miramar alpha 1.

I created a virtual folder that tested whether the subject contained MozillaZine. That listed the notifications for the forum posts. I then sent myself a message from another account with MozillaZine as the subject. It did not show up in the virtual folder.

I exited Thunderbird and ran 3.0.10. When I sent the same new message it showed up in the virtual folder.


Reproducible: Always

When you tested, are all of "search target folders" of the (Saved) Search Folder(Virtual Folder) kept in scope= line of virtualFolders.dat as you initially defined?

If a "search target folder"(real folder) is deleted/moved/renamed, it's removed from scope= line in virtualFolders.dat(==search target folders), and if the deleted/moved/renamed "search target folder"(real folder) is last one in scope= line, the (Saved) Search Folder(Virtual Folder) is deleted.

As virtual folder, at least next steps are required to show a new mail.
(i)   A new mail at "search target folder"(real folder) is detected.
(ii)  Headers of the new mail at "search target folder" is fetched.
(iii) Virtual Folder knows the new in mail the "search target folder".
(iv)  Virtual Folders shows the mail at thread pane(and count at folder pane).
To rule out problem at step (i) or (ii), get IMAP log and check IMAP level flow first, please.

Eric, does comment 1 make sense?

Odd. I've never had trouble with virtual like this.
