84006 - MailNews only downloads messages for the first account at startup of mail, regardless of prefs.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 85227

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[Shawn]

In Mozilla 2001060310, if you have two POP3 accounts set up and you have them 
both set to "check for new mail at startup" and "automatically download 
messages", only new messages for the first account are downloaded.  The others 
set off the notify that there is new mail, but the mail is not actually 
downloaded.

It appears to be working for me on Windows. 
I have not tried mac or linux.

These are the steps I took:
1. Configured one profile with 2 POP accounts
2.In Account Settings, go to the Server Settigs panels for each account and 
select the checkboxes:
- Check for new mail at startup
- Check for new messages every # minutes (I had mine set to "2" to see the 
results more quickly than 10)
- Automatically download any new messages
3. Exit/restart and two login dialogs appear asking for each account's password
4. Enter the password

Actual Results: I see the green icon for each account in the folder pane which 
signals that new messages are present. After selecting each Inbox the new 
messages appear to be downloaded. After waiting another 2 minutes it downloads 
the next set of messages.

Questions: What build are you using, what operating system?

Have saved password for both the accounts? Or do you log into both of them when 
you open mail.
