Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
ubuntu version: Ubuntu 8.04
package version: 2.0.0.14+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1
I use thunderbird to access my gmail account with IMAP. I have one
folder that I have marked for offline use. When I go offline, I tell
thunderbird to download messages for offline use, which it appears to
do. However, when I go to look for old messages in that folder, some of
them are unavailable, and give just the message:
"The body of this message has not been downloaded from the server for
reading offline", etc.,
while other messages of a similar age are available offline. The strange
thing is that if I use a text editor to examine the offline folder in my
thunderbird profile, I can find the messages that thunderbird claims are
not available offline. The full text of the message is available in the
folder and I can read it with my text editor. So the message was
correctly downloaded, but for some reason, thunderbird cannot find it in
its own folder. As soon as I go back online, thunderbird can find all
messages correctly again.
The folder that I mark to download is *very* big - almost 2 GB (it is
my gmail, 'All Mail' folder).
thanks in advance,
Cormac.
