Virtual folders regression: "live search" is too aggressive
Last modified: 2008-11-18 05:16:46 UTC
Please describe the problem: I have been using a "New Messages in any account" search as an Evo virtual folder for ages. The search is Match any of following - Status is Important or - Status is not Read or - Date Received is after 8 Hours Ago in the INBOXes of my IMAP accounts. After upgrading to 2.24, the folder is no longer usable because messages are removed from this search immediately after opening. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create the search folder above 2. Select a message in that folder 3. For extra credit, turn off message preview beforehand and doubleclick the message to open in another window Actual results: Message is shown for split-second, then it disappears from the search and the new window blanks out contents. Expected results: Same as with 2.22: message stays in the search folder and is fully actionable until user switches to another folder. This way the search is actually usable. Does this happen every time? Yes Other information:
