From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.8+) Gecko/20020226 BuildID: 20020220603 On any build of Mozilla I've tried after 2002021510 (the next was probably 20020218x), IMAP and NNTP connections hang if you had a proxy autoconfiguration file selected when Mozilla was first started. This is *not* a transparent or manditory proxy. Mozilla tries to connect to the proxy server when I try to connect to a local IMAP server, and any local or remote NNTP server. Configuring the proxy manually works. If you then re-select automatic configuration and click on reload, IMAP and NNTP connections start to time out again. (The proxy autoconfig is so on-campus things work without going through the proxy, and our off-campus students can get to certain resources by redirecting through the proxy without having all their http traffic pass through it.) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Edit | Preferences | Advanced | Proxies 2.Check off Automatic proxy, using http://web.drew.edu/proxyconf.cgi 3.Reload, or exit mozilla and restart it. 4.Go into Mail & News and try to open NNTP or IMAP connections. Actual Results: The client tries to connect to the server. It actually does generate some TCP traffic, but never manages to connect to either an IMAP or NNTP server. It eventually seems to time out and stop, but doesn't generate an error or other user feedback, much like if you'd clicked on stop yourself. As I said above, it worked in 2002021510. As a side note, outgoing mail connections to SMTP servers do not seem to be affected by this.
