Sometimes it happens that messages (e.g. one or two) appear in wrong folders in Thunderbird (latest version, also past versions, different computers, also Earlybird). When I repair the folder (folder/Settings/Repair Folder) in Thunderbird, the folder is correct then.
It happens on my new server with Fedora 20, Dovecot 2.2.13 and Maildir but it also happened on my old server with Fedora 1, Dovecot 2.2.13 and mbox.
Has anyone the same issue? Any guess whether it might be a thunderbird or dovecot issue? Anyone has the same issues with thunderbird and a different IMAP server (e.g. cyrus)?
it's a TB problem and happens with dbmail-imapd too from time to time
in fact similar things are happening for sure with Apple Mail and i would say in the one or another form it affects all clients with local caches which had to deal with connection troubles, program crashes or power outages at the wrong moment and my expierience shows that folders/accounts with a desktop MUA, 2 smartphones and a tablet are more likely affected
"repair folder" rebuilds the .msf file
once per year i stop TB and remove all .msf files from my profile interesting what like unfinished drafts and such things sometime appear :-)
