These may seem like two separate issues, but I expect that they are related. When perusing a very large folder in thread view (e.g. my archive of debian-users) some threads, when expanded, do not show all of their messages. When the thread is then collapsed, the next few messages after the whole thread (messages that are *not* in the thread) disappear. Refreshing the folder by switching to another folder and switching back revives the messages, so it appears to be a purely GUI-related issue. By way of demonstration, I have a thread that appears to have six messages, including the top-level one. When the folder is initially displayed, the top-level message is underlined, indicating there are new messages in the thread. When I expand the thread, no messages are bolded -- the unread message is simply not displayed, so it seems like thunderbird is thinking something like "I just displayed six messages" when it displayed only five (perhaps the unread one caused some error, so it was not added to the list). Then when I go to collapse the tree, thunderbird removes six messages following the top-level one, but since one of them was never added to the list, the next thread gets hidden too. Of course I could be completely wrong, but that's the best diagnostic I can give, given the information I have. And it doesn't happen all the time, but when it does happen with a particular thread, it is completely reproducable with that thread. The best suggestion I can offer to find this problem is sign up for a high-volume mailing list, like debian-users, and play with expanding and collapsing threads in thread view. Eventually you'll notice it happen. - -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages mozilla-thunderbird depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.5-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-1.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2.4 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.0.2-5 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.8.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.9-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libjpeg62 6b-11 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libpango1.0-0 1.10.1-2 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5 PNG library - runtime ii libstdc++6 4.0.2-5 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.7-1 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxp6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System printing extension ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0.2-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime Versions of packages mozilla-thunderbird recommends: ii myspell-en-gb [myspell-dictio 1:2.0.0-1 English_british dictionary for mys ii myspell-en-us [myspell-dictio 1:2.0.0-1 English_american dictionary for my pn xprint <none> (no description available) - -- debconf information excluded -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDxeOrqlk5sZw9W7kRAvb9AJ9OQoN1a0bSlgzLRLNtckFsmu02XACgh8sG SRV4OmFYlIZkKFdQNSP6HTk= =cJIM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
