If you try to copy a message to a server that you haven't logged into, you're asked for a password. If you press cancel in this dialog, Mozilla should present the user with an error that the Copying for the message failed. 4.x did this. To reproduce: - Go into Task -> Privacy and Security -> Password Manager -> View Stored Passwords. - Delete the password for one of you IMAP/POP account - restart Mozilla - Now try to copy/move a message from one of your other mail accounts to the account that you just deleted the password from. - You're presented with the "Enter Password" dialog. - Press Cancel Here you should be presented with a dialog that the Copyring of the messages failed.

taking - I'm fixing all this code.

+ per mail triage

Really, '+'? It seems like putting up that message would be more of a bug than not putting it up. If you cancel the password prompt when you try to open a folder, we don't tell you that the login failed, or that we failed to open the folder. I don't mind fixing it, but I'm wondering why you think this is important?

I agree with david, I don't think this should be a plus either. We have bigger fish to fry.

The concern at the triage meeting was that some users may not understand that the copy failed since we didn't give them that feedback (apparent data loss.) Looking at the description again, it does say that the user canceled the dialog. Do we feel that's obvious enough to minus this? Adding mailtriage to CC.

I think we can minus this one.

Ok, we can minus. I changed it.

accepting, but won't be fixed.

removing mail2 keyword.

won't fix, I don't think

I don't think I'll fix this.

ok :-)

ok.. but will open up another bug since I'm able to drag-n-drop messages from a mailserver that I'm not logged into to a local folder. This will cause some empty mails to appear in the local folder. bug 105633
