Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[kmurray1115]

Commercial Build 6.1 final
Windows ME

Summary: Mail opens to "Account Central" every time I start Mail, even if I
wasn't there last. I do not see this problem on any other platform but WinME. 

Steps:
1. On a WinME system, launch N6.1
2. Launch Mail
3. Make sure you have an email account (duh!)
4. Perform some mail operations: send mail, read mail, file some messages, etc
5. Make sure the Inbox is selected before you close Mail
6. Close Mail
7. Launch Mail

Actual Result:
Mail displays Account Central

Expected Result:
Mail should have remembered my last position and taken me to my inbox 
100% reproducible on my home machine: Dell 8100 1.5 ghz, 256 MB RAM, WinME

This is an issue with the folderpane's persistance. Jan wrote this code.

Argh, this is probably a dup of bug 95457. Sorry about that.

Looks like 'Check for new mail at startup' is turned off for this account.
Please check Server Settings and confirm.

It works fine depending on the pref value 'Check for new mail at startup'
(on->Inbox & off->Account Central). 

The above pref is turned on by default for the default account.

Marking WFM.

Not sure I agree Bhuvan - I have the pref to check for new mail at home and this
doesn't seem to work. I will try again with a new public build and toggle the
pref to see if that has any impact, and report back later this week.
