Title:
Thunderbird hangs for 10secs when auto-completing address
Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
Unknown
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird
This bug seems to be very old, but somehow I didn't find it in
Launchpad - forgive me if it's a dupe.
When composing a new mail, I start typing a few letters into the address bar
of the Thunderbird composer windows, and TB tries to autocomplete it from the
address book.
The drop-down menu appears, giving me the possibilities that start with the
letters I typed, BUT - Thunderbird hangs (compiz darkens the window) for
approx. 10 seconds - then it gets itself up again and processes complete
normally, no errors, no wrong behaviour - and the address book searches are
correct.
First I thought it was the prefs.js, see
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Long_time_to_open_address_book
Funny thing is, that I NEVER had used Thunderbird 1.5 before - but I had
about 50 lines with that "nonascii" in it.
I deleted them, and gone was the problem, for a few days.
TB worked normally.
Then the problem reoccurred.
Now my prefs.js is clean, and it still has the problem.
It might have something to do with LDAP search as well - I first thought it
has to do with that: I have a LDAP server on a openVPN network which is not
always connected - and I thought the delay was a network timeout when TB
searches for the LDAP and doesn't find it.
But I now disabled the LDAP address search in Thunderbird, and the problem
remains.
