96748 - Problems in folder pane after a new IMAP account is created

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[racham]

Here are the problems I have noticed with steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new profile
2. Launch mailnews
3. Create a new mail account
4. This is your default account. So, in folder pane, the account should be 
twisty opened and Inbox should be selected. I see it twisty opened, but there is 
 no Inbox. Password dialog has not come up. That means Inbox (invisible at this 
stage) is not selected.
5. Focus in folderpane is lost. But on the right hand side, you see threadpane 
and message pane which means the focus in folder should have been on one of the 
folders, Inbox in this case. That is not happening as mentioned earlier.

Problem #2 

6. Now click on the account in folder pane. Notice the Account Central page on 
the right hand side.
7. Click on 'Read Messages'. 
8. It prompts you for the passsword.
9. Enter the password and notice your imap folders getting shown up except the 
INBOX folder.
10. The focus in the folder pane is still on the account as Inbox is not found.

I know Inbox is there and is just not getting displayed.

Here is what brings life to Inbox.

-> Click on the twisty of the account to close it once and click on it to expand 
and notice Inbox folder show up.

So, manual clicking on the twisty is doing the right thing. But programmatic 
twisty isn't doing the samething possibly causing all these problems.

Will post some screen shots.

Attachment: screen shot #1 : (default) Account twisty is opened, but no Inbox seen, immediately after account creation

Attachment: screen shot #2 : Account is twisty opened when clicked on 'Read Messages' in Account Central. After login, all folders are seen except Inbox

Comment 3

Another related problem I noticed :

1. Create a one more mail account.
2. Notice that this account's twisty is shown open in the folder pane. We do 
that only for default account.

Note : Check new mail pref is set corerctly for all these accounts (checked for 
default account, unchecked for additional account).

[racham]

Attachment: screen shot #3 : twisty for additional account is open. It shouldn't be.

[Scott MacGregor]

yes, I see this and some similar problems when creating a new news account and 
subscribe to the first newsgroup.

Comment 8

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

I think the problem (in the case of imap) is that we assert() that the inbox 
got added during the assert() that the server got added.

content".

two (possibly) related bugs:

1) new pop accounts get created and they are closed.  (they should be open)
2) new news accounts get created, and when you first add a newsgroup, there is 
no twisty.

I've got a hack, but I'm not happy with it.

it works around the problem by making the account closed by default on creation.

but, both imap and pop accounts should be open on creation.

I'll continue to work on this.

minusing, but I'll continue to work on this.  if I keep getting stumped, I'll 
hand off to waterson.

> 1) new pop accounts get created and they are closed.  (they should be open)

I'll go log a bug on this.

> 2) new news accounts get created, and when you first add a newsgroup, there 
is no twisty.

waterson fix for #97859 will fix that.  (there's already a bug for this, I've 
marked it a dup of #97859)

Stealing, almost certainly a bug in rdfliner.

WRT sspitzer's comments from 2001-09-20 23:15: yes, the template builder isn't
re-entrant, but so long as GetTarget() returns something reasonable, everything
should come out in the wash.

Comment 18

[Chris Waterson]

Well, sho'nuff, it didn't really have anything to do with re-entrancy. I wasn't
checking newly added rows to see if they were being added as ``open''. The fix
is to check after adding the row, and if so, do the necessary dance to add the
new row's children to the outliner too.

excellent!  I tried it out and it fixes the problem.  (I tested on the branch).

[Scott MacGregor]

You rock Chris. Thanks so much for looking into this for us. Making this a
nsBranch+ bug. Assuming the reviews happen by 3:30pm tomorrow, I'll take it to
PDT and see what they say. I think the odds are very good since this fixes a UI
regression in the 3-pane and marketing is very interested in taking those kinds
of fixes. Thanks again.

Trunk build 2001-10-04: WinMe

I would like to see this fix in the Branch build since it is an improvement.

Results so far:
1. This portion is fixed, auto login and no double Inbox: New profile, add 1st
IMAP account and the account is expanded so I see the Inbox, a password dialog
appears (known problem with it being cutoff), enter password and messages are
retrieved as expected.
  ------------------------------------------------------------------
This part is not fixed but may require its own bug:

2. Add second IMAP account and the widget is expanded but no Inbox appears. 
Workaround: I have to close/expand the widget to see the Inbox, select the Inbox
for the password dialog to appear (same results using the 10/4 branch build).

6.1RTM behavior: When the second account is added the account widget is
collapsed. To login I have to expand the widget and select the Inbox. 

After discussing this with jglick maybe a good compromise would be to expand the
second account but leave focus on the original account.

I have a concern regarding adding the second account. After the second account
is added, I'm seeing double Inboxes under the first account. Please try this
scenario:

- New profile
- Add the 1st IMAP account, login (qatest22)
- Add a 2nd IMAP account (qatest33)

Actual Results: Look at the first account in the folder pane. Notice it now has
2 Inboxes. Click on the second Inbox and a password dialog for the second
account appears (qatest33). Scroll down the folder pane and notice that the
second account does not have an Inbox directly under its account level.

I don't see double Inboxes for the first account. When the second account is
added I still don't see double Inboxes. The problem with both accounts is that
the account widget is expanded yet no folders appear, I have to close/expand the
account widget to see the Inbox, and have to select the Inbox to get a password
dialog.

- 1st account: only 1 Inbox appears
- 2nd account: now the 1st account appears to have 2 Inboxes! I have the same
concerns regarding this issue. Is this going to be fixed? After an exit/restart
it's ok but it's terribley confusing.

Reopening due to this concern.

Comment 35

[Ninoschka Baca]

Summary of additional testing: 

- When the second account added is an IMAP account, added via Acct Wizard (i.e.
nsmail-2, webmail, aol) then the double Inbox appears under the first account. 
- If the second account is an Activated webmail account then it's ok.
- If the second account is POP or News then it's ok

     ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Scenarios tried in a new profile:
- POP/POP - ok
- POP/IMAP - double inbox
- POP/Webmail (using Acct Wiz) - double inbox
- IMAP/POP - ok
- IMAP/IMAP - double inbox
- IMAP/AOL (using Acct Wiz) - double inbox
- Configured for a POP account, exit/restart the appliation, added IMAP account
and the double inbox still appears.
- POP/News - ok

Activation scenarios:
- Migrated POP acct, Activated WebMail account - ok 
- New Profile POP, exit/restart the application, Activate WebMail account - ok


Workaround: When the double Inboxes appear then close/expand the account widget
(or close/open Mail). 

Comment 36

[Chris Waterson]

Okay, although I think that the double-inbox bug should be fixed if we can
figure out something for bug 100952.

Comment 37

[Scott MacGregor]

I forgot to mention that we took this out of the 094 branch since it ended up
making things worse (with creating a 2nd account). Removing the branch+ since
this will end up getting fixed on the trunk only. 

Leaving open for work on the trunk.

The problem as originally described is now occuring. This is good since the
"fix" made it worse when a second account was added. Will wait for the real fix
on the trunk.
