The mail server responded:[TRYCREATE] Mailbox doesn't exist: test@test.de^^test2.test2a.test2b.test2c . then it died with SIGSEGV. Imap server is dovecot ("mail_location = maildir:/var/spool/imap/%u/Maildir", folder seperator is "." by default). After a restart thunderbird shows a corrupted mail folder name in the new subfolder (see screenshot). Other subfolders were not created, Most EMails were not copied, either. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.create a folder hierarchy with 2 subfolders on a pop account test@test.de | +-- test1.test1a.test1b | +-- test2.test2a.test2b.test2c and put some EMails in every folder 2. use drag-and-drop to copy "test@test.de" to a new imap account (using maildir, folder separator is ".") 3. watch it die

PS: I can offer a thunderbird log file for this test case in private mail.

(In reply to comment #2) > PS: I can offer a thunderbird log file for this test case in private mail. What did you log ?

This may be the same as bug 531568, which also seems to occur for cross-folder moves.

(In reply to comment #3) > > What did you log ? I started Thunderbird with NSPR_LOG_MODULES=imap:5,timestamp and reproduced the problem. Should I try some more options?

can you attach the logs here (use the add attachment link above), clean up personnal bits of informations in the logs too. ?

(In reply to comment #4) > This may be the same as bug 531568, which also seems to occur for cross-folder > moves. I am not sure about this. AFAICS tb asked the imap server to create some folders and subfolders with corrupted names. When tb tried to push some EMails into the new subfolders the imap server complained and tb died. Doesn't look like a destructor issue to me. Can you reproduce this problem?

(In reply to comment #6) > can you attach the logs here (use the add attachment link above), clean up > personnal bits of informations in the logs too. ? Done. Hopefully I did not corrupt the log on editing.

I tried copying a local folder tree, similar to comment 0, to an IMAP server. I got three different results in three trials, but none of them were crashes. On the first trial, the folders were copied to the same level in the structure, but the names of the subfolders were appended to the name of the parent, with one or two non-ascii characters between them. On the second trial, all seemed to go well - but then I could delete the copied subfolders, but not the root folder. On the third trial, all went well, but I cannot now delete ANY of the copied folders. Delete fails with the message "The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded:Mailbox exists." So I think it is clear that something strange is going on here, I'm just not sure what. Because my results are a little different than Harald's, and are not a crash, that will make it harder to debug. But I'll at least confirm this for now as worthy of additional investigation.

As a workaround I have changed my local dovecot configuration to use '/' as a separator and to store mail folders in nested subdirectories: namespace private { separator = / prefix = location = maildir:~/Maildir:LAYOUT=fs inbox = yes } Using this configuration I could migrate about 100MByte EMails from the local directory to the maildir managed by dovecot.

(In reply to comment #14) > As a workaround I have changed my local dovecot configuration to use '/' as a > separator(snip) As you reported to bug 537591, Dovecot doen't permit creation of folder like test@test.de and it silently fails if Tb is used. It was not a problem in your workaround? Did you removed "." from all local mail folder structure befor migration?

AFAICS Dovecot doesn't have this restriction for using "LAYOUT=fs". Folder names like "test@test.de" were accepted without problems. See http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir But of course this is just a workaround. If you have a fix for Thunderbird then I would be glad to verify it.

Is this bug two issues, the slash issue, plus the crash? crash looks like a duplicate Mac stack I have in Bug 542431 - crash [@ nsMsgCopyService::ClearRequest(nsCopyRequest*, unsigned int)]. Bug 542431 is a low occurrence crash.
