mga6, x86_64

Updated thunderbird and thunderbird-en_GB.
Launched it and connected to Google email account.
New messages in inbox.  List functions working fine.  Tabs OK.  
Checked address book and sent a test email to a friend.
In Calendar reminders still marked off.

Skipped enigmail for reason quoted on earlier bugs - problems with gnome-keyring.

Working fine for me but leaving the OK for other users.

OK here 64 bit: Swedish, Plasma, Nvidia, SMTP, offline IMAP.
Have been using it in production a day.
Only a few mails sent and received, but many in archives.
Not using calendar nor enigmail.

Comment 7 Herman Viaene 2019-02-06 16:31:22 CET
MGA6-32 MATE on IBM Thinkpad R50e
No installation issues.
Sent simple mail and mail with attachment to other account, read on other machine. From the remote (with previous Thunderbird version) answered back and answer received correctly.
However, noticed something irregular: each mail sent from this version appears twice in its "sent" box, but the mail is received only once at the remote PC. Answers from there appear only once in the inbox as expected.
I wonder whether Len and James and Morgan have checked the "Sent" folder???

Comment 8 Morgan Leijström 2019-02-06 16:39:57 CET
In reply to comment #7
Works correctly here, but I am not using POP.
On one account it as default: the sent folder get a copu of what i send.
Another account i have set to put the sent messages in inbox instead (for better threading) and that works too.
Comment 9 Herman Viaene 2019-02-06 17:22:32 CET
I'm not using POP either, just one hotmail account. I'll try tomorrow with a gmail account to see whether that makes any difference.
Comment 10 Len Lawrence 2019-02-06 18:09:39 CET
Re comments 7-9.  Just checked the Sent folder on my gmail account and  all is normal.  No doubling.
Comment 11 Herman Viaene 2019-02-07 09:32:24 CET
Removed the hotmail account completely, added my gmail account and did my test again. All OK now.
So I won't object the OK here.
Comment 12 José Jorge 2019-02-07 10:41:57 CET
All ok here also in i586.
