Description Yolkfull Chow 2008-11-19 03:21:58 UTC
Description of problem:
Go to Preferences->Pravacy->Passwords,check option "Use a master password to encrypt stored passwords", in the popup window,just click "OK" without typing any password. And then you will be warned something like "haven't set master password..." but the option is checked still.And if set a master password by clicking the button, and then remove it,you will find the option "Use a master password to encrypt stored passwords" could be checked/unchecked arbitrarily and won't popup any window for setting master password.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
thunderbird-2.0.0.18-1.el5 - x86_64 (zh_TW)

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to Preferences->Pravacy->Passwords,check option "Use a master password to encrypt stored passwords", in the popup window,just click "OK" without typing any password.
2. set a password by click the button, and then remove the password
3.
  
Actual results:
If don't type any password for the popup window and click "OK",the option "Use a master password to encrypt stored passwords" could be checked/unchecked arbitrarily and won't popup any window for setting master password soon later.

Expected results:
If user click "OK" without typing any password, the option should change back to unchecked status.

We filed this bug in the upstream database (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=466675) 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.
