Since Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060215 Thunderbird/1.6a1 it is not any longer possible to access the settings for the several accounts but the default account (see screenshot in attachment). It still does not work in todays's nightly: 2006021602 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have a profile with more than one account (e.g. one POP3 account and one News account) 2. Open 'Tools - Account Settings' 3. Try to change settings for a non-default account Actual Results: Only the default account can be accessed (marked by the [+] symbol). Expected Results: For the other accounts the [+] is missing, account data cannot be accessed. This has also been reported for Linux builds and also for Seamonkey: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060215 SeaMonkey/1.5a
confirming - I see this too, in my debug trunk build. None of the sub-categories for the non-default servers show up at all, under their respective servers. The 1.8.1 branch is OK, so it's most likely not the favorite folders stuff, which was my initial fear...
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
It's not the default account that's special - I'm not quite sure what's special about the account that does have settings available; it's the second account listed, and not the default. And the Local Folders account has one sub-category displayed for disk space. Weird.

It might be just by chance that in my case it's the default account. However, as you can see in the screenshot from my attachment, here it's the first account listed. > And the Local Folders account has one sub-category > displayed for disk space. Weird. Same here, but the respective account here is the first News account (I don't have local folders account).
This is not only Thunderbird, SeaMonkey Trunk is also affected almost on Windows and Linux Plattforms. I will gve an link to the Sreenshot from yesterdays CREATURE-Tinderbox-Build 2006021504: http://img110.imageshack.us/img110/2160/accountsettings20060215043jw.png And it seems to bee really weired which accounts are affected, in my case only one of IMAP-Accounts was o.k.

The patch in bug 326712 fixes this for me. It contains a fix for some container related issues.
No longer blocks: 285631

thx, yes, the patch in bug 326712 fixes this for me as well. It doesn't fix the assertions on startup, however, bug 327508. It's up to you if you want to dup this bug, or just mark it fixed when you checkin the patch for bug 326712.

Confirming my bug (327681) as a duplicate of this. Thanks to Stephen for catching it. I have noticed this problem did not occur with the 2/16 and 2/17 builds on another system, when an earlier build of SeaMonkey that did not have this problem, had been installed. It simply used the preferences that were created by the earlier, non-problematic build.
I am retracting the second portion of Comment 9. I just checked the settings on the other computer with the 2006021701 Linux nightly SeaMonkey and the same has indeed occurred, account settings only show for one account.
This is a Core bug, but I don't have a clue which component fits the best except XP Toolkit (which is difficult to find if you have a problem with Mailnews/TB).

yes, my trunk build pulled yesterday has the problem again (not quite identical in terms of what accounts are displayed and how, but close enough)
(In reply to comment #16) > yes, my trunk build pulled yesterday has the problem again (not quite identical > in terms of what accounts are displayed and how, but close enough) Biggest difference to the 'original' bug is, apart from a different account still accessible, that this time the [+] (Expand) is still there. Even more, it switches to [-] when pressed and also back to [+]. But it does not expand (open?) the account data.
Looks to be a regression from bug 328496
OK, the problem here is that the account settings list expects there to be several rows in the list with the same resource uri. I could add back support for this, although it will take a few days to implement and test, and would add a bit more overhead. I notice though that the account list is only using it to display the settings panel labels. Is it possible to use unique panel resources based on the account?
possibly - I'm not familiar with that code so I'd have to look at it.
Neil, can you say more about what I would change? We use the account manager ds in other places, so we wouldn't want the settings resources to be children of the accounts in the account manager ds...isn't it the containment property of the tree that populates the various settings labels in the left pane? That list is dynamic based on the server, and possible extensions, if you look at mailnews\base\src\nsMsgAccountManagerDS.cpp

After much thought, I've found a way of implementing what is needed in the template builder that doesn't affect memory usage or performance, so I'll have a patch for this soon.

This should fix the account settings window.

Attachment #213793 - Flags: review?(bzbarsky)
Neil, could you explain what this is actually doing? Like which parts of the code are doing what? This is a reasonably big patch, and I'm already swamped with such, so I'll need some help to do this review in any sort of reasonable (next week) timeframe. Also, given that vlad reviewed the original landing, maybe he can help?
Sure I can provide a patch with more comments tomorrow. The general idea is to support displaying the same node in multiple places, as in the Account Settings window where 'Server Settings' appears several times, once for each account. nsTemplateMatch is modified to include a field aContainer which is the parent where the item is inserted. This way, a result can be uniquely identified by the container and the child result, allowing the same child id to appear in multiple containers. Places where the list of matches are being iterated over such as in UpdateResult are modified to ensure that the container is the same. The MayGenerateResult function is replaced with a GetInsertionLocations function since a result may be inserted into multiple locations. UpdateResult then iterates over each one. The other changes just change the fields in nsTemplateMatch so as to not increase the size of the class now that it has the aContainer field. I changed it to use 2 byte indicies of the query and rule instead of pointers. That could have been another bug though. It doesn't really matter who reviews it, so if you like, feel free to change it.

If I bring up Mozilla 1.7.x, I can see the settings for the email account. In Seamonkey(Build 2006022009) the settings aren't visable.
Attached patch version with more comments (deleted) — Splinter Review
I didn't add many comments, as although the patch looks big, it is mostly changes to argument and field names bz, did you want me to get vlad to review this instead? Also, it would be good if some mail folks tested this too.
