72596 - File button folder menu isn't dynamic (enough)

Status: NEW

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Peter Trudelle]

Using today's builds on Win98 & Linux:
Launch mail and open folder menu , e.g. on File button.
Note there is no <foo> folder
Add new IMAP folder, <foo>, using some other MUA
Open up folder menu again.
No <foo>
Open folder hierarchy in sidebar.
Note <foo> is there.
Open folder menu again.
Still no <foo>
Workaround: use Move Message command in Message menu.

I just tried this and couldn't reproduce it.  I used the 12/7 build on Win 2000.
 I created folders in my IMAP and POP accounts at both the top level and under
subfolders and I could see them show up immediately in the File menu.

Are you still seeing this, Peter?

Confirmed working in Mozilla 1.3b Build ID 2003021008
This bug can be closed as: "RESOLVED"
Please note that reporter calls the "File" toolbar button incorrectly as "open
folder menu"

Can still reproduce this as described in the duped bug 157451 (see the second
comment that points out you have to create a toplevel- and a subfolder).

To reproduce in Mozilla 1.7.5 on WinXP using an IMAP server(UW IMAP):
1. Stay in a message from an IMAP INBOX
2. Create a new folder named: test1
3. Create a new subfolder of test1 named: test11
4. Do NOT click on folder test1 nor test11
Problems:
5. Navigate using the "File" button in the toolbar, there is no folder test11
6. Navigate using the "Move to" context menu, there is no folder test11
Woks:
7. Navigate using the "Copy to" context menu, IT WORKS!

Don't know why the "Copy to" context menu works but not the others.

If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way.
If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar).
If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state.

MASS-CHANGE:
This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but still has no comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project 5 years ago.

Because of this, we're resolving the bug as EXPIRED.

If you still can reproduce the bug on SeaMonkey 2 or otherwise think it's still valid, please REOPEN it and if it is a platform or toolkit issue, move it to the according component.
