Cool, thanks for the patch. The patch you referenced (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=735319&action=diff) was already checked in. Also bug 640371 should help this case as it refuses to download any new messages if there is less than several MB of free disk space. Even if we rewrote popstate.dat in that case (but unchanged) there should be enough space to do it.
But your patch may cover some more cases (e.g. if the disk is filled by other program and some messages are only marked for deletion on server). I just wonder why net_pop3_write_state can't report any failure to higher levels. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261595 Title: Thunderbird corrupts Mailbox when hd is full Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: In Progress Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird I fetched the POP3 EMails and the last Message got cut in the middle. Other than in Bug #23302 there was NO warning about little space. Then I got a warning after the error the little space and freed some space up. Now it fetched all allready fetched mails again and added some junk from another email into the unfinished email. In the end this is not so severe, but the check for little space should kick in before and it should not get to corruption of email data. Seen in ubuntu 8.04.1 with thunderbird 2.0.0.16.
