email contents of inbox gone

[Stefanie]

Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

I just discovered that I thunderbird doesn't view the content of most of my emails in my Inbox anymore. It still shows the title of the emails, but no content or attachments.

It didn't apply to emails from today, which I just received and to emails in folders.

I don't know what happened... I haven't deleted anything.

I use Mozilla Thunderbird 1.5.0.12 under Ubuntu version 2.18.1

Happened to me in December 2007, and happened now. I don't know what the problem is, I'm using pop3 anyway. The file Inbox doesn't contains the mail body, only a bunch of them are contained... the others are lost.

This is really a serious bug, it happens silently and when you discover you past mails are gone it is too late.

Can you please try and reproduce this with Thunderbird 2.0? I dont have packages made for download at this time but will build it for Fiesty unless you already have them. I had to remove them from my ppa a while ago due to FTBFS. I should be home no later than this sunday so i will check bug when i return home.
