Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:17.0) Gecko/17.0 Thunderbird/17.0 I get both error and message entries in Error Console for RSS feeds to which I am subscribed if those feeds have no new messages.
The Error Console error entry for "The Mozilla Thunderbird Blog" was: Timestamp: 12/6/12 9:02:49 PM Error: no element found Source File: http://blog.mozilla.org/thunderbird/feed/ Line: 1 The message entry was: 2012-12-06 21:02:49 Feeds INFO downloaded: Update: Blogs & News Feeds/The Mozilla Thunderbird Blog -> http://blog.mozilla.com/thunderbird/feed/. There are no new articles for this feed.
the former is a gecko network message about a poorly constructed html file and the latter is an info saying the server has responded with a not changed LAST-MODIFIED timestamp to indicate they have a new file. no bug here.

Regarding the Thunderbird RSS, the URI changed from HTTP to HTTPS since I subscribed. I have corrected this. However, the Web page at <http://www.rossde.com/> and its RSS feed URI <http://www.rossde.com/feed.xml> both validate via W3C. In the Error Console, launching Thunderbird gives the error: Timestamp: 12/7/12 1:42:12 PM Error: no element found Source File: http://www.rossde.com/feed.xml Line: 1

those happen all the time, and are transient network errors at a lower gecko level than feed processing. do not reopen this.
