95378 - select offline dialog: perform expand for imap, not prompting to log in.

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[(not reading, please use [e-mail] instead)]

select offline dialog:  perform expand for imap, not prompting to log in.

we might need to imap discover folders if the user uses the select offline
dialog and we haven't logged into the imap server yet.

news used to log in, but it shouldn't, that's fixed.  (there is no need to.)

this regressed when I landed the outliner, I'll work out the kinks.

this work will happen during .9.5 but is still scheduled to land on the branch.

move off even further.  the exising behaviour is acceptable, as long as the 
folder is in the folder datasource, it will show up.

so the current behaviour (to my knowledge) is better than the existing 
behaviour.

once I confirm there is no edge case / good reason to log in, I'll change this 
bug to cover removing the existing performexpand() code that is already in 
the "select offline" javascript.

Bulk reopening incorrectly expired bugs - no activity does not constitute no bug - these need proper checking.
