User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/51.0
Build ID: 20170205065236

Steps to reproduce:

launch thunderbird with:

NSPR_LOG_MODULES=smtp:5 NSPR_LOG_FILE=/tmp/thunderbird.log thunderbird

compose and send a message.


Actual results:

the log /tmp/thunderbird.log will contain something like:

 -321738944[7fb1eb8a2380]: SMTP AuthLoginStep1() for testuser@example.com@<90><F6>^K<EA><B1>^?

that trailing garbage is bad!  it should represent a string-like version 




Expected results:


https://dxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mailnews/compose/src/nsSmtpProtocol.cpp#1460

shows that what should be a string pointer is being retrieved from an nsCOMPtr<nsISmtpServer>.get() function, which is just a nsISmtpServer* -- i think it should be calling GetHostname or GetDescription or something comparable instead of handing a raw pointer to the logging function.
Thank you for the report, happens both with 45.7.1 and latest Trunk (54.0a1).

Thanks. Synchronicity. We discovered this ourselves today, see bug 1340755.

Current try run here:

We'll get this fixed in TB 52 beta 4 and the next TB 52 ESR due in March 2017.
Aceman, we just need a patch for C-A and C-B, C-C will be fixed in bug 1340755.

Yep, but only for C-A and C-B. Or do you want to separate this out from the other patch? You decide, I'll approve anything ;-)

Yes, let's split this out of bug 1340755 as this is a functional change.
Fine, just land them together later then.
