When I open the mail/news reader, about one time in four it will open

Why is this behavior not consistent each time, and how do I stop it?
Thanks!

I think that if you close all expanded stuffs .... just before leaving
completely SM before going to shutdown your pc and before going to
sleep. The next morning started the pc and started SM ... you will find
it in the same situation of yesterday ... all is closed.

This is Bug 507908, which some developers think might be a feature. I
think it is indeed a bug -- a regression from Tbird 2 -- and should be
fixed.

See<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=507908>.


How can i vote negatively ?
Because i love this bug ... you will find expanded/closed as it was
before the closing of SM, So you retrieve the latest situation at start up.

That is not what is happening. When the newsserver lists open expanded I
always collapse them. The "bug" is that when I close the mail/news
reader with the listings collapsed, they are expanded again *sometimes*
when I next start mail/news. If they came back the way I left them when
I last closed the app, I wouldn't be complaining about it.

If you mean that individual newsgroup threads are expanded within a
newsgroup, that is a different issue.  That is bug #232562.  There is a
workaround for this.  Either through [Tools>  Options>  Advanced>
Config Editor] or by editing the user.js file in your profile, set the
preference variable mailnews.scroll_to_new_message to "false".  See
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=232562>.

If you mean that a news-mail account is expanded, that is bug 507908,
which I cited earlier in this thread.

Yes, it is the mail-news accounts, specifically the newsservers, which are being expanded. I leave the mail account expanded all the time but not the news accounts.

Is it sufficient to have this reported as a bug for Thunderbird, or should it also be reported somewhere for SeaMonkey?
