107953 - when incoming server and outgoing server are the same the username for the SMTP server should be the same a the username for the incoming server.

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Account Configuration, defect)

Description

[Henrik Gemal]

I always get into this problem:

I create an IMAP server account that has the following info:
incoming server mail.bla.net
outgoing server mail.bla.net
mailaddress = [e-mail]
username = me

then a IMAP server is created with the correct username BUT the username for my 
SMTP server is set to spammer! The correct username is me

The username seems to be taken from the mailadress. The is ok, but not when the 
incoming and outgoing server are the same!

The same happens with the first (off all accounts) POP server account you make.

fixed.  thanks ian.

I wonder using the username (if we have it) would be better than the email
username, even if the hostname doesn't match?

maybe our account wizard should have a username field for smtp?

I'll look to see what OE does.

either way, these issues could be spun off to new bugs.

Well from testing the patch I initially didn't have the hostname comparison
check but on balance decided it was best to have it whilst there wasn't a
separate field for smtp server's username. Spinning this off to bug 201469
