As announced and explained in comment 70, I will close this bug because it has lost focus of the original MAC-only problem and has become too messy to maintain.
* The original MAC-only problem of this bug has been re-filed as bug 814342. That problem was observed *before* bug 128124 made the list properties dialogue modal on all OS, so it cannot currently be tested and needs to be revisited after fix for bug 135126. * Bug 135126 (and its TB-twin bug 282841 currently kept open as a duplicate collector) covers the current problem on *all* OS that it is generally not possible to drag & drop cards into the List properties dialogue because the dialogue window is modal. Todo: - check if different problem of Comment 68 is covered by its own bug (that's a problem of dragging *text* into the list properties dialogue, and it doesn't create new lines for subsequent addresses as expected) - revisit & sort out duplicates of this bug and move them to the appropriate current bugs. Due to the morph-mess in this bug, I'd expect some of them to be dupes of bug 135126 rather than bug 814342. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 814342 *** -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/711314 Title: Address Book - Can't drag and drop contacts to list Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Invalid Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird Address Book - Can't drag and drop contacts to list.
