Created attachment 8371072 WIP patch 3 This adds the requested test (as xpcshell so Seamonkey gets it too). Also covers all the feedback from Neil, Irving, Josiah and Ulf. When moving a folder outside Trash, it asks about the rename. It does not ask when moving to Trash = deleting. I can't distinguish between clicking Delete and manually dragging to Trash. That would need sending the distinguishing flag through all the layers of functions from UI to backend and I'd not want to do that in this bug.
Josiah, decide if we want to note the proposed final folder name in the renaming question as Ulf proposes. I'll look at IMAP after we settle on what layer this needs to be. Seems the patch here does option 1. from Neil's comment. -- 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/214366 Title: Can't delete a folder if Trash already contains a folder of the same name Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: In Progress Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird 1. Create a new folder, eg. "Temp" 2. Delete it, OK 3. Create the same folder again 4. Delete it, OK I expect it to be moved to my Trash folder, perhaps with a suffix appended (it being the second instance of that folder in the trash). Thunderbird popped up an error message. On an imap host: The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Mailbox already exists. In the local folders: A folder with that name already exists. Please enter a different name (!) Workarounds: 1. Empty the trash 2. Rename the folder before deletion 3. Rename the folder already in the trash 4. Delete (permanently) the folder that is already in the trash Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy thunderbird 2.0.0.12+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.7.10.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/214366/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
