Distribution: Debian testing/unstable Package: Evolution Priority: Normal Version: GNOME2.6. 1.5.7 Gnome-Distributor: GNOME.Org Synopsis: Incoming mail changes selection of emails Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Mailer Bugzilla-Version: 1.5.7 Description: Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Select one of your email folders -> all emails in that folder are shown in the top right list 2. select a view of these emails while holding down the [Ctrl] key 3. wait until a new email arrives which is sorted (by a filter) into this particular folder Actual Results: The selection is removed, only one email is selected (and thus displayed in the preview pane) Expected Results: The selection should retain as it is. How often does this happen? always Additional Information: This occured when I was looking at a vFolder. Probably this only happens in vFolders. Setting qa contact to the default for this product. This bug either had no qa contact or an invalid one.
this is actually a mailer bug, although partly because of changed etable behaviour. not sure how fixable it is.
jeff, do you want to look at this? we don't want to store this on the folder persistently, but it would be nice if it hung around for the session. that shouldn't be much different from having it just work when you get new messages. should be able to get the selection then re-set it just using a list.
jp wants me to look at this
fixed, hopefully didn't bust anything else
