(Keywords: regression, regressionwindow-wanted, Whiteboard: [datalossy])

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:93.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/93.0

Steps to reproduce:

  • set the threading mode of a folder to Threaded or Grouped by Sort
  • wait for folder maintenance to occur

Actual results:

Threading mode is reset to Unthreaded.

Expected results:

Threading mode is kept unchanged.

I can reproduce this with beta. I wonder when this went wrong.

Summary: Folder maintenance resets threading mode → "Repair" Folder maintenance resets threading mode
Whiteboard: [datalossy]

I could not reproduce using 91.2.1, or 94.0b4 on Fedora 34 Workstation.

My settings are Sort by Date, Ascending, Threaded. Also tried with Grouped by Sort.

WFM on linux trunk.

I can confirm this for IMAP and NNTP but not for POP3 on the Trunk TB and TB91 on Windows.

I think that's Bug 1568355

Thanks Alfred!

I am a bit confused as to how this bug can be a duplicate of another one which is 2 years old. I've only started seeing this bug in TB 91.

I have also just tested TB78.14. And this one shows this bug too.

I can't say why you haven't noticed the bug so far. Maybe the default settings were more suitable?
