812763 - Message panel shows the wrong headers

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Message Reader UI, defect)

Description

[Alvaro Lopez Ortega]

Attachment: Screenshot from 2012-11-17 12:43:55.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/23.0.1271.64 Safari/537.11

Steps to reproduce:

I was reading my mail and realized the headers shown in the message panel were not the actual headers of the message.


Actual results:

I checked out the "Message Source" and confirmed it. The "From:" header shows a known contact, but certainly not the sender of that message.


Expected results:

The message panel shows the actual headers of the message.

Attachment: shows erroneous header

I can confirm this error. when switching from one message to another part of the headers in the header pane shows information from the previously selected header.

This is the first time I have witnessed this and it only happens with the one message. I assume the issue is an error in parsing the source headers.

I will attach the redacted source for the message

This is the source from the email causing the issue

I am using Thndirbird 38.2.0 in windows 7

The problem no longer seems to happen.

I will report back if I notice it again.
