97964 - quota alert dialog box thrown up, even though no mailnews window is open

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(MailNews Core :: Networking: IMAP, defect)

Description

[John Morrison]

I've been lazy about cleaning up my IMAP folders on judge, and I am now at 
the level where periodically I am warned that I am at "92% of quota". That's 
fine. 

The odd thing is that I was using the browser and was typing in the urlbar 
when out of nowhere one of these alert dialogs came up, even though I didn't 
have any mailnews windows open, let alone in use. I assume it was biff that
triggered this dialog, but it seems that it would be better to not propagate
this warning up from biff. It's just confusing to a user to have a dialog 
come up to inform them of some event that is completely unrelated to what 
they are doing at the time (surprised me when I saw it). 

This, though, is a very minor bug, and I don't really expect it to be addressed
for quite some time. Just for consideration.

Does this problem still manifest itself on 2.0.0.* or recent Trunk builds? IF no response in 3 weeks, I will RESO INCO.

Closing as RESO INCO due to lack of response to last comment. If you feel this change was made in error, respond to this comment with your reasons why.
