Description

Huh. That's rather odd. Not every time? Thunderbird shut down properly? It is an intermittent error. I have seen this occur after having some issues with thunderbird (i.e. an intermittent loss of internet or a crash). But, I have also seen it after closing thunderbird and confirming that the thunderbird process is not running before I logout. I have also run into another issue which may or may not be related: Often, when deleting an e-mail message, the next e-mail message becomes blank and shows a date of 1969. If I open a different folder and then go back to my inbox, the blank message is ok again. Does a restart of thunderbird fix it? No, a restart of thunderbird doesn't fix these issues. The messages are really gone. Bryan, can you still reproduce this with the current update of Thunderbird in your distro? I am now running thunderbird-2.0.0.9-1.fc8 on Fedora 8 and still have problems. I haven't lost my entire inbox, but I have had the same errors while deleting messages. Also, another bug in Fedora 8: when I launch Thunderbird, Thunderbird no longer prompts me for passwords to my inboxes. I have to click on each individual mail account in Thunderbird to have it prompt me for a password for that account. OK, let’s make a little order in this bug -- if I understand correctly, then the bug which is in the summary (TB losing inbox) went away, right? So, I am renaming this bug to “Sometimes when deleting messages, next message becomes blank and gets date in 1969" and I would like to ask you to file a bug “TB doesn’t ask for passwords on startup” (or something like that), please. Thank you very much Reporter, are you able to reproduce this bug on the latest upgrade of your distribution? If you won't reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you. I still have this problem. you mean both problems, or which one? and you have filed a bug as asked in comment 7? Thank you. and of course which release of thunderbird you are using now? I still see the problem with the next message becoming blank when deleting a message. This occurs with thunderbird-2.0.0.12-1.fc8. This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping I still see this problem on Fedora 9 with thunderbird-2.0.0.14-1.fc9.x86_64. We found that this bug has been already registered in the upstream database (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=434105) and believe that it is more appropriate to let it be resolved upstream. Red Hat will continue to track the issue in the centralized upstream bug tracker, and will review any bug fixes that become available for consideration in future updates. Thank you for the bug report. |
