wrong recipient when replying with intelligent identity detection

[Jean-Louis Moisy]

Binary package hint: thunderbird

When I reply to a mail sent to an alternate identity the intelligent identity detection works well and the sender address is the one I want but the recipient adress is not that of the sender of the original message but all the recipients of the original message.

This bug is reproducible both on Windows XP SP3 and Ubuntu Jaunty with Thunderbird 2.0.0.23

This bug still exists now, more than a year after the original report.

I would definitely define it as a sever bug.

At least in one case it caused me an unpleasant embarrassment, when I replayed to an email, and all the "un-replayed" addresses got it, except the one I meant to send it to.

It happens to me using Windows XP SP3 using Thunderbird 3.1.5.

Hello Jean-Louis,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.

You made this bug report in 2009 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 438198

and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.

G
