9085 - Accounts in folder pane should not appear with "@" sign

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect, P1)

Description

Build 1999062808M8: Win32/NT4, Linux Redhat 5.2, Mac 8.5.1

Accounts in the folder pane appear in the form "account@server" (i.e.
qatest32@nsmail-2). The "@" sign should be removed because it is not an email
address. It should state "account on server" (i.e. qatest32 on nsmail-2,
qatest32 on tintin) or have the ability to show a Pretty Name.

hope to do this for m8.
Just need to return the prettyName instead of parsing the URI.

ok, this is now done. It now says "userid on servername"
You can use the preference
user_pref("mail.server.<servername>.name", "verbose server name");

to override this too.

Verified Fixed. All accounts are in the form of "userid on servername". I also
tried using the user pref for a verbose server name and that works also. Great!
