Quickfolders causes message moving to freeze in TB #477

Open MichaelJFischer opened 5 months ago

This report pertains to TB 115.10.1 (and before) and QuickFolders 6.5.1.

It seems that sometimes a message gets locked so that it cannot be moved. This often happens when using QuickFolders to move a large number of messages to a mail folder in a different email account. Some message will be moved correctly; then it hangs. When this happens, it appears that TB itself is wedged, for using the TB move command also does not work, nor does it help to disable and reenable QuickFolders. What does work is to restart TB.

Today it happened when I was moving Sent messages to other folders. One message hung when I moved it to a QF tab. Even so, I could move other messages to other folders, so it appears that QuickFolders continued to work on other messages. But I needed to restart TB in order to move that hung message out of Sent.

interesting - do they always come from a single folder? I am using an internal API for moving the emails. It would be good to see if there are any errors logged in JavaScript console (it can be opened with CTRL+Shift+J, but if Thunderbird hangs completely it may be to late to open it. You could open it before the copy/move operation and let it run in the background)
