[Desktop-packages] [Bug 603402]
(In reply to Tom Guyette from comment #61) I did an experiment and I believe sooner or later can be replaced with Restart Thunderbird. This is my attempt at documenting the workaround step by step: EVERY TIME YOU WANT TO REFRESH THE INBOX: 2 - Close Thunderbird, including all mail viewing windows. 3 - Start Thunderbird. If I understood your headings, I can safely reduce all of your steps to the ones I left in my quotation. I see deleted mails almost every day in my primary mailbox which is not Gmail. I just need to restart Thunderbird and everything works nicely again. No other configuration is required for this to work. Still it's cumbersome to restart applications to repair them, it might as well crash every day. This really should not be necessary at all. -- 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/603402 Title: Thunderbird incorrectly shows some Gmail archived messages as unread via IMAP Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird Steps to reproduce: 1) Wait for a few messages to arrive in Inbox, thus being marked as unread. 2) Mark all of them as read, then archive them. 3) Click on All Mail folder.

Not sure what smartphones you have there but I have a permanent IDLE connection from mine, as on the desktop with Thunderbird. If disabling IDLE in Thunderbird is part of the workaround, then I think IDLE implementation is the problem. I'm not using IDLE for fun, I want to see new messages as they arrive. That's how modern event-driven systems work. Polling is from the 90s. But since nobody was able to even locate the problem as of today, and given the open secret that Thunderbird is merely in maintenance mode for quite some time, I don't believe anybody is able to fix this issue (and others) without rewriting it all.

(In reply to WADA from comment #40) - Put small JavaScript code like click Work Offline, reply if required, wait for a while, click Work Online, reply if required. In case you're not aware of it anymore, going offline and back online does not resolve the issue. At least for me. The only thing that does help is restarting Thunderbird, which I have to doo every few days when I deleted something either in the web mailer or my smartphone (K9 mail), with both work fine the other way around. (In reply to WADA from comment #41) (a) Use other than Thunderbird as your mailer which fully fulfills your pretty important requirement(s). Thunderbird is the closest, unfortunately. (b) Use other sophisticated and clever IMAP server who supports feature of SHOULD even if the feature is not MUST in RFC. This seems to be the Mozilla way of dealing with bugs: Blame it on the others, no matter how. While my comment may not be constructive, neither is yours.

Guess what, this isn't even limited to Gmail. It happens on my own IMAP server as well. It's running Dovecot on Linux. See bug 712595. Offline and online mode does not help. Changing folders does not work. Only restarting Thunderbird helps for sure. Until then, I regularly see unread or read messages in my inbox at home that I've already read and/or deleted through webmail or smartphone. I also have the impression that it's not a long delay, but instead it's a now or never. Disabling IDLE is definitely no option because that's the future (well, present already) and what everybody else uses successfully. I have the impression that there's some race condition inside Thunderbird that nobody will ever be able to find without rewriting the whole thing. -- 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/603402 Title: Thunderbird incorrectly shows some Gmail archived messages as unread via IMAP Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird Steps to reproduce: 1) Wait for a few messages to arrive in Inbox, thus being marked as unread. 2) Mark all of them as read, then archive them. 3) Click on All Mail folder.
