6.50B2 watch item named same as folder doesn't work

Postby e10kstarfire » Sat Apr 06, 2013 3:35 pm

I was trying to create new watch called "Music", it lets you go in and create this no problem.

I click OK to close the new watch window, no error but the new watch does not appear under Watch Topics.

Either it should give an error or let you create it.

I believe the problem is because I have a folder called "Music" with newsgroups within it, I tried with other other watch lists same as folder names and same issue.

Good catch, reproduced, hadn't thought to try that. Yeah, nothing should ever silently fail, and looks like there's a namespace collision...
