[Bug 898531] [NEW] thunderbird doesn't quit when using IMAP and empty trash on exit

[Patrik Nilsson]

Public bug reported:

When using an IMAP server and set Thunderbird to empty trash on exit,
Thunderbird doesn't quit. When you press the cross button on the title
list, Thunderbird closes all its windows, but the process always stays
in memory.

You can't start Thunderbird again with this option, it says it is still
running. You need to kill the process first.

Unchecking "empty on exit" when using IMAP and you can start Thunderbird
repeatedly.

(When using POP it always works as expected.)

Ubuntu 10.04
Thunderbird 3.1.15+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.1
