I did a bit of debugging. folderPane.js:2605, folder.rename(aName, msgWindow);, calls nsImapMailFolder::Rename() which calls nsImapService::RenameLeaf() and that opens this URL via GetImapConnectionAndLoadUrl(): "imap://u...@mail.com@server:143/rename>.INBOX.TestMessages>.INBOX.testMessages" Later we came into nsImapIncomingServer::OnlineFolderRename() and nsImapMailFolder::RenameClient() which does indeed call nsMsgDBFolder::PropagateDelete() as a comment in the patch suggests.
So that's all very well, but there appears to be some code missing to remove the no longer existing folder from the UI. -- 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/106737 Title: Renaming folder to same name but different case not allowed Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird In 1.5.0.10, renaming the folder "foo" to "foO", "fOo" or "Foo" isn't allowed; the OK button isn't clickable upon typing the new name. However, this can be worked around by renaming the folder "foo" to "bar" first, and then renaming "bar" to "foO".
