Bug 1798199 Comment 28 Edit History

Note: The actual edited comment in the bug view page will always show the original commenter’s name and original timestamp.

zaggie1, seems like your problem has changed since comment 0, and iiuc, per your comment 22, this is no longer about passwords.
Is the following a correct representation of your problem?

- You are able to add a new SMTP server which survives restarting TB
- The associated passwords are correctly saved in Saved Passwords and survive restart TB
- When you change the username in the SMTP server settings, the change works for the current session, but does *not* survive restarting TB, so the username will go back to the original username with which the SMTP server was first created.

Is that correct? If not, what exactly are you doing, and what exactly is failing?

> I have narrowed down issue in that it is the Accounts Settings that is not saving new smtp user/name (see new screenshots) but reverts to previous smtp settings on relaunching app. However, the new username and password now saves correctly to the Password Manager (still saved there after relaunch) so by re-updating the smtp user/name in Accounts Setting TB remembers (until relaunch) the saved associated Password Manager username/password.

- Also, are the symptoms of this bug still different from your bug 1798197?

- Zaggie1, as we've fixed bug 1782646 on release channel now, can you recheck if this bug still occurs on TB 102.5.0+?
