78371 - Mail throbber never stops throbbing

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[selmer (gone)]

4/30 04 Win98

Using this build, I have yet to see the throbber stop throbbing in the mail
window.  Scottip says his doesn't do this, what can I look at that would explain it?

I'm not seeing this problem with 2001-04-30-04 on win98.

I see this after a delete of multiple messages, not after a single delete. It
could have to do with the changes I made for delete of multiple local msgs, I
suppose, though I don't see how.

I think my fix for bug 76501 is going to fix this, mostly - I think the fact
that we were loading multiple messages quickly was causing this spinning (I base
this solely on the fact that something changed to cause an assertion when we
delete multiple messages, deep in the load group code, and also that running
with a fix for 76501 has made this problem go away for me. Clicking on messages
quickly could still cause this, however.

I'm cool again on the 5/07 04 build.  Throbber stops quickly on my NT box.
