936807 - Delete from server does not work

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Hans Berglund]

Attachment: The file contains 33214 lines, so I have attached only the last lines

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 2013091200

Steps to reproduce:

In server settings, I have marked "Leave messages on server", "For at most 7 days" and "Until I delete them". Messages are nevere deleted from server, so there is now 2400 messages on the server.


Actual results:

I have enabled protocol tracing for the POP protocol, and the Thunderbird client seems to bail out after "DELE" message number 196.


Expected results:

About 2000 DELE messages should be sent to the server to delete all messages older than 7 days.

Pasting that part and the lines around (if no confidential data included) highly welcome.

Well, I attached a part of the log, the last 37 lines, and the interesting part is in there. I can include more lines if that is needed. See under "Attachments".

Even when I untick "For at most 7 days" and "Until I delete them", and leave "Leave message on server" ticked, all these "DELE" messages are sent to the server. And it fails at around "DELE 196". The client should not send "DELE" messages to the server in this case, should it?

Another strange thing about my Thunderbird client is that is says there are no messages to fetch, even when I know there are unread messages on the server.

Please forget this issue. The problem turned out to be on the server side (zimbra server). At the time I posted this, I thought it was a Thunderbird problem. I am sorry for bothering you.
