Trunk build 2002-03-13: WinMe Overview: With a list selected in the directory pane, delete cards in the results pane then switch to another address book/list and back and now the results pane is empty. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a mailing list with 5 cards (card1-card5) 2. Select the list in the dir pane 3. Shift+Select 4 cards in the results pane, select the Delete button and the results pane only shows one card remaining (i.e. card5), as expected 4. Switch to another AB or list, then switch back to the original list Actual Results: The results pane is blank. Switch between different address book and different lists and then back and the results pane is still blank. Workaround: Open the mailing list and the entry is present (i.e. card5), close the list, then switch between an ab/list and back to the orignal list and now the results pane will show the entry. Expected Results: The card should display in the results pane immediately.
Nominating for nsbeta1 because it will appear as data loss no matter how many times the user switches between an address book and back to the original list. It is not obvious that the user has to open the mailing list, close the mailing list, then switch back and forth for the cards to appear in the results pane.

Summary: Delete cards from a list, switch folders and results pane is empty → Delete multiple cards from a list, switch folders and results pane is empty
Marking nsbeta1. This bug makes managing lists very confusing. The user should not have to open/close the list dialog and then switch between address books to see that the list is reflected correctly.

Mozilla 1.1b nightly build Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020901 can not reproduce
I can reproduce this with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.2a) Gecko/20020914 I created a new list "test2" with 5 cards "test[1-5]@test.de". Then I removed test2 and test3. After that, the list displayed only "test1@test.de" while double-clicking on the list shows me that test1@, test4@ and test5@ are members of the list. Steps to reproduce this bug: 1. Create a new card 2. Create a new list 3. Add the card to the list 4. Remove the card from the list 5. Add a card (some or different) to the list 6. Select the list Results: GUI shows an empty list, while double clicking shows a member
Trunk build 2002-12-23: Mac 10.1.3, WinMe Marking Worksforme. It appears to working using the original steps. Steps in comment# 9 appear different from the original steps since they never mention selecting the list from the directory pane. If steps in comment# 9 display an empty list then please open a new bug.
