Details
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910
I am currently using Mozilla (version listed above) as my primary email client.
I downloaded and installed Thunderbird version 1.0 (20041206). During the
installation it gave me the option to import Netscape/Mozilla 1.x, which I
selected. It appeared to import email and all just fine.
I have the following four email accounts: ebay@frednorth.com,
northreno@frednorth.com, doctorgeek@frednorth.com and lowfreq0@nvbell.net. When
I opened up Thunderbird, I discovered the following:
email for ebay@frednorth.com was imported into the account for
northreno@frednorth.com
email for northreno@frednorth.com was imported into the account for
doctorgeek@frednorth.com
email for doctorgeek@frednorth.com was imported into the account for
ebay@frednorth.com
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. have more than one email account with the same domain in separate accounts in
Mozilla email
2. install Thunderbird and allow it to import Netscape/Mozilla 1.x email
3. Uninstall Thunderbird
4. In c:\Documents and Settings\-current user-\Application Data delete the
Thunderbird entry (as the uninstall procedure does not delete this as it should)
5. Repeat steps 1 and 2
Actual Results:
Email for email accounts with the same domain are all entered into the wrong
email accounts... consistantly the same as I described in the Details section.
Expected Results:
imported the email as follows:
ebay@frednorth.com email from Mozilla email into ebay@frednorth.com email
account in Thunderbird
northreno@frednorth.com email into northreno@frednorth email account in Thunderbird.
doctorgeek@frednorth.com email into doctorgeek@frednorth email account in
Thunderbird.
