Thunderbird does not display remote share folders

[wirelessbit]

Binary package hint: thunderbird

After loading Thunderbird there are not folders displayed under the Local Folder tree.
The folder is a shared location on a Windows 2003 Server that is mounted using CIFS and there are still not working.
It was working before on Ubuntu 9.04 but after upgrading to Ubuntu 9.10 it stop working. All permission are still the same and are working since I can access the same location using Thunderbird under Windows Vista with no problem at all.

After running Thunderbird under the console I get the following:
When I run:

thunderbird -jsconsole

From the console I get an error as such:
(gecko:3119): atk-bridge-WARNING **: AT_SPI_REGISTRY was not started at session startup.

(gecko:3119): atk-bridge-WARNING **: IOR not set.

(gecko:3119): atk-bridge-WARNING **: Could not locate registry

I am running:
Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic)
GNOME 2.28.1
Kernel 2.6.31-15-generic

If I run only thunderbird from the console then I get the same error:
(gecko:3164): atk-bridge-WARNING **: AT_SPI_REGISTRY was not started at session startup.

(gecko:3164): atk-bridge-WARNING **: IOR not set.

(gecko:3164): atk-bridge-WARNING **: Could not locate registry

The error does not allow me to connect to my remote share folders that contain the .sdb folders.
Yes I check all the configurations in the system including permission, I can access the same share folders from my Windows systems using Thunderbird with the exact same configuration as the one in my Ubuntu system and works fine.

The funny part is that the bug report is reporting that the Thunderbird package is not installed but it is actually installed. I also tried to purge, remove and install Thunderbird again with the same results.

Any help greatly appreciated.

I think this a duplicate of 478509

The option noserverino in /etc/fstab solves the problem.

Add the extension again and reboot this time in stead of using sudo
mount -a and it works after reboot.

Thank you.
