User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686) AppleWebKit/535.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/13.0.782.215 Safari/535.1 Steps to reproduce: I've exported my subscriptions from Google Reader and then imported generated XML-file into Thunderbird. Actual results: Not all subscriptions were imported. XML-file contains 89 subscriptions, but Thunderbird has imported only 38. Expected results: Thunderbird should import all subscriptions from XML-file.

This bug still exists in Thunderbird 10. It makes TB unusable for me :(.
I've discovered, that Thunderbird is confused by this string: <outline text="." title="." type="rss" xmlUrl="http://roman.khimov.ru/feed/rss/" htmlUrl="http://roman.khimov.ru"/> No single dots allowed in text and title?
It seems that it's impossible to use single dot in feed title, because Thunderbird stores feeds as files, so file cannot be named as ".". That's abnormal :/.
This bug resolves if feed is imported to pre-created news folder.
Alta did you fix this in all the fixes you did recently ?
no, i didn't touch opml. both import/export have very many issues.
Depends on: 750292
