738565 - Tooltip stays on attachment when file exceeds size of filelink provider dropbox

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Onno Ekker [:nONoNonO UTC+1]]

When you attach a big file to an e-mail, you get an option to send it as a link.
When the file exceeds the maximum size for the filelink provider, you get an error message saying so:
File exceeds the maximum size for Dropbox.

When you dismiss that popup and after that you hover the mouse over the attachment, you still get a tooltip saying:
Uploading to Dropbox...

I believe this was fixed by bug 744004, which should be landing in an EarlyBird very soon.  Marking WFM unless I hear more.

****! So much for doing that smoothly. :(

This problem is happening to me now (The attachment 8415244 [details] is the support info.)

Both Box & Dropbox filelinks fail with the same error.

As an aside, IMNSHO these addons should (*cough*) report errors and conditions via the normal error reporting system and error console.
