I've never seen a case where developers corrected a bug a user found.

You are not looking hard enough. Look harder. I fixed the following
bugs:

Bug 86400  reported by David Carroll
Bug 156734 reported by Jeremy M. Dolan
Bug 388349 reported by Ed
Bug 395371 reported by arno renevier
Bug 414014 reported by Eyal Rozenberg
Bug 482433 reported by Chris Wimlett
Bug 534248 reported by Aleksej
Bug 534322 reported by Kevin Brosnan

Actually I fixed more but I got bored searching through bugzilla.


Could you fix this
     https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218258
     https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=595696

     or tell me how can i fix it

In reading the first bug from one end proves exactly my point that
developers believe that users can't know what they want, that only
developers know what users want. And tend to ignore users wishes.


Do you know what a RFE bug is and where they sit on the priority list?


Yes I know what Referral For Enhancement is:

But did you see all the arguments against the suggestion?

with all the arrangements against. there was no chance it would even
been looked at.

You can actually tell what will get fixed or added just by comments. If
there are no comments with a week. or if the vast majority of comments
are negative. nothing will be fixed

Go look at bugs That have no comments, and those that have mostly
negative comments. Now see one with good comment as majority and see for
yourself which have been fixed or are being worked on.


What do you think is the ratio of RFE's that are implemented to the bugs
that are fixed? Taking that list that I posted the link to, how many of
those FIXED bugs are RFE's? None?  What do you think is the reason?
Could the answer be that real BUGS are a lot more important than a
wish-list?

In fact, a very recent request/wish was made by Timo P in the
.devs.thunderbird group. It's being discussed and attended to quite
handily and may show up in the next release. Timo is making suggestions
and the devs are listening. BTW, Timo is a "user".

Few if any because they are not taken seriously.
