Changing the connect to internet to direct connection fixes the problem. I have 2 IMAP accounts and 2 smtp servers. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to to options and select the connect to internet button 2.Select manual proxy config and type in an IP. Click button for same proxy for all protocols 3.Try to send mail 4. It times out saying that the smtp mail server is not available and to check the settings. 5. Try the other SMTP account .. no better 6. Go back to the proxy connection option and select the direct connection button 7. Works
Duplicate of bug 322719?

YOu have a choice.. either connect to IMAP servers or to Internet proxy. Setting a manual proxy results in time-outs to IMAP server. This is a REAL pain, as a lot of email includes internet images etc Is a fix far away .. he plantively asks ?? Peter

Tried the latest nightly 20060705. Seems fixed... EXCEPT after sending mail to the smtp server .. TB crashes :-( BTw ... need proxy setting option in the quality feedback agent.. It seems to depend on the TB setttings ...

Ah ha !! .... possibly more info ??? Running lastest nightly 20060710 ? Our internet proxy server requires a log in and password. I know ... I know .... do not ask :-( Anyway .. if I start Firefox and punch in the proxy username/password then the connection to the proxy/net in TB apppears to work ! Yippee !! So it seems that TB does not like to have a proxy login box. Mind you .... I can sometimes "jag" it. Peter

Using nightly 20070727. Seems to work if I use the proxy.pac to define my proxy server .... if I manually set it .... falls over ... Interestingly ..... If I manually set the proxy, it seems to work, but when I select another IMAP folder or send an email, it fails with a time out.. Still .... this is some progress....

(In reply to comment #6) > but when I select (snip) send an email, it fails with a time out. Similar timeout to Bug 325649? Get NSPR log with timestamp of nsSocketTransport:5,nsHostResolver:5 in addition to IMAP:5,SMTP:5. - See Bug 86396 comment #7 for NSPR log with timestamp on MS Win - See http://www.mozilla.org/projects/netlib/http/http-debugging.html for nsSocketTransport:5,nsHostResolver:5
