Description of problem: Having some address bokk antries in thunderbird with a screen name field. If I remove such a screen name, pressing then OK does not close this dialog window, and I have additionally to press CANCEL. After stopping thunderbird and starting again, I still see these removed screen name enttries. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): thunderbird-11.0.1-1.fc17.x86_64 How reproducible: Alwyas Steps to Reproduce: 1.See description 2. 3. Actual results: See description Expected results: Screen names remain removed. Additional info: 1. There is the same behaviour if I start thunderbird with the -save-mode option 2. I checked this in Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS, but there the entries remain removed as expected.
Created attachment 574748 [details] demonstration I'm not sure if I get it right. See attached video for demonstration. This doesn't work for you? What kind of address book do you use (local, ldap)?
Local and ldap. The problem appears with the local address book!
Run thunderbird by: thunderbird -jsconsole This opens debugging javascript console. See if there show up any errors or warnings in console while clicking on OK button.
Nothing appears in the jconsole if I press OK or cancel after having removed the screen name for some entry in the local address book.
Do you still see this issue? If you do try test with fresh profile. I'm unable to reproduce it.

Looks like some mess in profile, closing as WFM.
I could solve my issues in a more simple way: export the concerned address book and import it's contents to another one. There I could remove the "Screen name" entries without problems.
