Description of problem: Using an IMAP server (Cyrus 2.2.12) with subfolders, Mozilla does not always update the folder's email list after selecting a folder using the mouse. If the error occurs, it helps to click on another folder and then again on the desired folder. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050719 Fedora/1.7.10-1.3.1 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. connect your Mozilla 1.7.10 to a Cyrus IMAP server 2. click on different subfolders of your INBOX 3. watch the list's update of the folder's content Actual results: In 30-40 % of all cases, Mozilla misses to update the list of folder's content. Expected results: Mozilla should always update the list after selecting a folder. Additional info: Never seen this before on any Mozilla release.
The same for me using a pop server.
Bug should be fixed in version 1.7.11 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300749
For the record, the same problem was visible with the following version: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050719 Fedora/1.7.10-1.5.1 This is a regression, since the problem started when I've installed the latest updates for Fedora Core 4: (from yum.log): Aug 10 08:49:18 Updated: mozilla-nspr.i386 37:1.7.10-1.5.1 ... Aug 10 08:49:34 Updated: mozilla-nss.i386 37:1.7.10-1.5.1 Aug 10 08:49:53 Updated: mozilla.i386 37:1.7.10-1.5.1 ... Aug 10 09:02:42 Updated: mozilla-mail.i386 37:1.7.10-1.5.1 The earlier version that worked fine was 1.7.8-2, installed on Jul 13: Jul 13 19:18:18 Updated: mozilla-mail.i386 37:1.7.8-2 So the regression has occured somewhere between mozilla package versions 1.7.8-2 and 1.7.10-1.5.1.
So can we count on an update release for Fedora Core 4? The latest mozilla packages from Fedora are almost unusable for mailnews :(
Could the bug be reopened until an updated package for the latest Fedora release (FC4) comes out? There's no updated RPM for Fedora Core 4 yet.
It would be very bad if that broken package managed to get into RHEL... Did anyone at Redhat notice this regression? It's serious.
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
