• Reviews
• bug 418777 Fixed LDAP autocomplete not working for authenticated connections.
• bug 433307 Tidied up nsMsgBiffManager implementation and switched to use nsTArray rather than nsVoidArray (type safety improvement).
• Automated tests
  • Posted Rules and Review Policy for Unit Tests within mailnews/ and mail/.
  • Worked patches on bug 378991 to a review complete state, waiting for core to re-open before these can be submitted.
  • bug 432812 Reworked some of the xpcshell tests wrt setup and clean up to make it easier and develop, updated wiki page.
  • Started to think about start up performance testing. Mainly just thoughts at the moment.

asuth:

• Created tag meta-bug: bug 432710
• Lots of work on deleting-lots-of-messages bug 296453. I think I have addressed all of the fundamental issues, although there's the question of...
  • Should we have a folder-events-only event stream that people can listen for, so they don't have to receive all the message events and just filter them out?
  • Created page on threading and the preferences that affect it in the process: MailNews:Message_Threading.
  • (Still need to log a related bug or two and try and get some unit testing for the topological sort logic.)
• Touched base with clarkbw on search.
