126776 - 0.9.9 Release Notes Tracking Bug

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Tracking, defect)

Description

Track changes and additions to the 0.9.9 Release Notes.

Comment 1

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Proposed Note (based on bug 114705):

The RedHat 7.2 TrueType Japanese fonts package has the "Arial" bold italic font
aliased to a Japanese font that looks very bad on Western pages.  See
http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHBA-2001-145.html for more details and an
updated version of the font package that does not have this problem.

Comment 2

[Keith Briscoe]

Please change that comment to read "Helvetica" instead of Arial.  Full information on the bug is available at the RedHat link Boris provided.

Comment 3

[Bradley Baetz (:bbaetz)]

Mozilla now supports the use of socks proxies for mailnews (bug 44995). The
value entered in prefs->advanced->proxies->socks host will be used for this. If
you have an entry in there which is not a socks proxy, then you will receive an
error message, usually "connection refused". You must ensure that this field is
left blank unless you require a socks proxy.

(reword as needed)

Oh, and add something along the lines of: "The error message will refer to your
mail server, not your proxy server. This is a generic networking bug which
affects all protocols (bug 56629)"

Comment 5

[Bradley Baetz (:bbaetz)]

and: "Note that this means that if you use a socks proxy and want to read mail
from localhost (or any site the socks proxy does not ahve access to), you should
manually exlude those site(s) from being proxied."

Verifying FIXED per the obviousness of the status.
