can You please fix it with Your favorite solution !

this issue is already very very old without any progress.
reported Jan-2001

and if there is time it can be udated later ?


: if already exists in trash it could also be moved to
- trash/1/foldername
- trash/2/foldername
so name must not be touch for move.


but no matter how,
please help with Your favorite solution/fix

thanks, Bernhard

Title:
  Can't delete a folder if Trash already contains a folder of the same
  name

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  In Progress
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

  1. Create a new folder, eg. "Temp"
  2. Delete it, OK
  3. Create the same folder again
  4. Delete it, OK

  I expect it to be moved to my Trash folder, perhaps with a suffix
  appended (it being the second instance of that folder in the trash).

  Thunderbird popped up an error message. On an imap host:
     The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Mailbox 
already exists.
  In the local folders:
     A folder with that name already exists. Please enter a different name (!)

  Workarounds:
  1. Empty the trash
  2. Rename the folder before deletion
  3. Rename the folder already in the trash
  4. Delete (permanently) the folder that is already in the trash

  Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy
  thunderbird 2.0.0.12+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.7.10.0
