Bug: Subject column doesn't display, all known fixed tried and failed

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/115.0

Steps to reproduce:

I run Thunderbird and connect with 2 different IMap servers which I will call IMap folder 1 and IMap folder 2. I do NOT use unified message folder, so I use separate tabs for each IMap server. Thunderbird was operating properly when I restarted my computer on June 3 and started Thunderbird. However, when I unlocked my computer this afternoon on June 7 one of the two IMap folders was not showing any columns and the list of emails was blank, although it indicated I had a a large number of emails. The other IMap folder showed the Subject  column and the other columns I had selected.

I looked online for possible bug fixes and found info about adding columns using the column button. I added columns but the Subject column still didn't display in the IMap folder, but the selected columns I added did display. There is no button to add the Subject column,. I shut down and restarted my computer to see if that would resolve the issue, but this did not result in the Subject column showing for IMap folder 1. I then deleted the 2 json files from my profile as suggested and restarted Thunderbird. But this did not resolve the issue.  I restarted Thunderbird yet again.

I then selected IMap folder 2 and selected the Subject column and tried to "Apply columns to .." the IMap folder 1. This did not fix the issue on IMap folder 1.

I have Thunderbird running on several other desktop computers, so I still have usable email. However, this laptop is my primary computer that I use for travel. I will wait 48 hours and try any fixes suggested. Then I will completely uninstall Thunderbird and all associated files and reinstall Thunderbird for scratch.
 
I think Thunderbird support should strongly consider adding Subject in the Column list as a failsafe way to fix this issue for users when it occurs. Programming for the Subject button in the column list can be coded so it can only be used to display Subject and not hide Subject. This option could fix corrupted json or other configuration files that have been damaged that cause this problem.

I have been using Thunderbird since before version 10.2 in 2012.

Actual results:

Nothing worked


Expected results:

Subject column should have been displayed.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1817605+++

In Local Folders, create a few folders, then move one of them into another, that is changing hierarchy level. The result is rather random, sometimes the desired folder is moved, other times, some other folder.
Bug: If an email excedes the maximum size, reloading the full email displays an empty email (POP3 partial message)
Status: RESOLVED

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/122.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

1) A message is displayed indicating that the email is larger than the set limit
2) Select reload entire email
3) The detail display becomes blank, although the header is still displayed.

Please note : this problem is not new with TB 115, but it did work properly in the past.


Actual results:

See above.

Since the loaded email passes the set limit, it seems that the full email was loaded.  (limit was 500k, size shown in header is 527k.)

The email stored in the mbox file contains the lines :
X-Mozilla-Status: 0401
X-Mozilla-Status2: 00000000

If I recall correctly, 0001 means email was read.
Most codes start with 00,  so suspect the problem is with the 04.
(Remember the 4-byte code is bit-mapped.)

So I would expect that either the 04 is incorrect, or that code is not properly displayed




Expected results:

The full email should have been displayed.
Note that there was a large image that caused passing the size limit.
Smaller emails will display images with the email.

Steps to reproduce:

On Debian sid/unstable with *thunderbird* 1:115.11.0-1, receive a message from a colleague.


Actual results:

The subject is unaligned – small space in the beginning – in the message overview.


Expected results:

All subjects should be properly aligned.

Unfortunately, I am unable to share the messages.

    Subject: =?UTF-8?Q?_Einladung_und_Erg=C3=A4nzung_der_Tagesordnung_f=C3=BCr_d?=

A second one, with the original message forwarded, so only *Fwd:* appended, does not show the problem.

Actual results:

Account properties window opens, but the "OK/cancel" buttons are hidden. There is no indication that the window is resizable, or that there are buttons. 

Resulted in me thinking that the Retention Period settings are bugged. But turned out that I was just not seeing the "OK" button.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1881897


Expected results:

Window size should dynamically scale to fit all content and buttons regardless of system settings. E.g. - If I make the system font even bigger, the text and other content of the window just overflow and aren't visible either.

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/124.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

I had Thunderbird set to check my accounts every 5 minutes.  I stepped away from my computer for several hours, and the ISP that several of them are on appears to have been having problems accepting logins for quite some time.
This occurred in Thunderbird 115.11.0 on Manjaro Xfce.


Actual results:

When I returned to the computer, dozens of the following messages were on my screen:  "Login to server ---- with username ---- failed."  Dismissing individual messages was difficult until I got the messages in the proper sequence, and system memory usage was dangerously high on my computer that has only 8 GB of RAM.  Even once I managed to dismiss all of the messages, the following was happening:
1) Clicking on a different folder in the folder pane didn't cause the new folder's messages to appear, although the folder's name was selected.
2) I couldn't open a new Thunderbird window, tab, or even Help-About dialog box.
3) Exiting Thunderbird caused the Thunderbird window to disappear, but the Task manager showed that the program was still active several minutes later, until I rebooted the computer.

In a silver lining, I was at least able to scroll through the list of folders to see which had new messages, so that I could write them down and check them when I restarted Thunderbird.


Expected results:

Well, clearly not the above.  A balance needs to be struck between prompting for feedback if the user is present and preserving functioning of the program and the system if the user isn't responding to the prompts for action.

Bug: Pathological mailbox compacting / excessive disk usage (125.0 beta)
Status: RESOLVED

Resolution: DUPLICATE
Created: 2024-06-10 15:57:20+00:00

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:127.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/127.0

Steps to reproduce:

Automatic compacting uses massive amounts of disk space (428GB nstmp file for a 6GB mailbox).

No user input at the time.

This has happened twice before, but didn't report it as it seemed to be a one off.
Not completely sure but the earliest time this happened was on either 125.0 beta or 124.0 beta.

None of the components have anything to do with non UI issues, so left as Untriaged (General is not an option for mere users).


Actual results:

Error message came up saying compact couldn't complete either due to lack of permissions of insufficient disk space.

Checked {profile}/ImapMail/{account} and found a 428GB nstmp-2 file (also had a 1GB nstmp-1 file and a 420MB nstmp file).


Expected results:

Expected a folder compact to use at most 2x folder size in a temporary file.
Bug: Junk folder does not appear under "Junk" group

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:126.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/126.0

Steps to reproduce:

For one of the accounts, I use an IMAP server, which has server-side spam filtering into a folder named "Junk Email". 

In Thunderbird's Server settings, under Junk, I've specified to move Junk messages to this folder (see screenshot).


Actual results:

I have four email accounts. In the account/folders panel, there is a "Junk" group under which I see junk folders from three of my accounts. (see attached screenshot) The fourth one, however, is no longer shown there, but I can see it under the folder list for a particular IMAP server. Even there it does not have "trash" icon (see screenshot).

P.S. The same seems to be happening with "Trash."


Expected results:

I expect to see all three junk folders under "Junk"

I suspect that the grouping under the "Junk" group is done by an exact match on the "Junk" folder name, ignoring the user Junk folder setting per account.

I'm surprised I've not noticed this before, because I usually have a tag named "pink!" in my test profile.

The smart mailboxes code will go looking for a folder at `mailbox://nobody@smart%20mailboxes/tags/pink!` but won't find it because the actual URL ends with `pink%21`. Then it will try to create the folder `pink!` and fail because it already exists. Folder names aren't converted to URLs using *normal* URL encoding, [everything gets encoded except the alphanumeric characters](https://searchfox.org/comm-central/rev/f0e70f9beea9d5b9029e09fb2545ba97981cbd3f/mailnews/base/src/nsMsgDBFolder.cpp#3299).
