Title:
Thunderbird doesn't synchronize IMAP until the program is closed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
I'm using 64-bit Jaunty Kubuntu on two machines. I use an IMAP account
because it's important to me that I have the same email on both
machines.
While I was using Intrepid, changes to my email happened immediately.
For example, if I had both machines running with thunderbird open on
both, if I deleted an email on one, it would be deleted on the other.
Now, in order for the changes on one Thunderbird to propogate to the
other I have to close Thunderbird. As soon as I do, all the changes
I've made propogate to the other thunderbird and then on my webmail.
The first thing I did was call my email support number, and they reset
my account and that didn't fix it. They said no configuration changed,
so it must be Thunderbird.
Another example is if I have Thunderbird open and webmail open in
Firefox, then I delete an email in Thunderbird, the email isn't
deleted in webmail. Once I close Thunderbird, the changes I've made to
my messages then appear in webmail. For whatever reason, Thunderbird
does something when it closes to synchronize, instead of in real time.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Thunderbird for an IMAP account
2. Send a test email to that account from a different account (such as
webmail)
3. No change in Thunderbird
4. Close Thunderbird
5. Open Thunderbird again
6. The new email appears
Expected behaviour:
The new email should appear as soon as step #3 above
Actual behaviour:
The new email only appears at step #6 above, after closing and re-opening
Thunderbird
