Thunderbird Tabs Show Wrong Content

[jschrempp]

I'm running Thunderbird 24.6.0 on OS X 10.9.3

I will open several email messages in tabs. I close one tab by clicking the x and the next tab will reveal, as expected.

Sometimes, not always, the newly revealed tab will have the correct subject at the top, but the wrong email text displayed. I believe - but am not certain - that it is always the contents of the email from the just closed tab. It's as if the newly revealed tab is using the display window of the just closed tab without refreshing the contents.

At this point if I click on other open tabs they also keep displaying the same text instead of displaying the correct text for the message the tab corresponds to.

The wrong contents remain even if Iminimize Thunderbird to the menu bar and bring it back. If I close all tabs and then open some messages the tabs seem to work fine again.

I disabled AdBlockPlus at the suggestion of Matt. It's been two weeks now and I have not seen the bad behavior I described.

The problem was intermittent, so I'm hard pressed to say it is gone for good, but I think this is now 3x the mean time between failure.

Hi,

I just had the bad behavior happen again, but this time AdBlockPlus was disabled. I assume this means that the problem is not a bug with AdBlockPlus. You can close this issue.

My apologies.
