132559 - unable to send mail to worldnet using ssl and custom port

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 135357

(MailNews Core :: Networking: SMTP, defect)

Description

[Ed Schaum]

I cannot send mail using the new custom port setup.

Using same build (2002032003) on both win98 and win2k with same results.

Trying to send mail to ATT's inet server imailhost.worldnet.att.net using port
465 and a secure connection with name and password.

After clicking send, box comes up saying "sending message", which does not go
away.  

Message is never sent, and upon cancellation, a "sending failed" message appears.

thanks.

Also true for Win2K Moz. 1.1Beta (Build 20020721) with attbi.com's mail (port
465/ssl). (mail.attbi.com/465/ssl)

This seems to be happening for me as well. Severe issues w/ SMTP & SSL. If I
select "Always use SSL", it doesn't work, period. If I select "use SSL if
possible" it usually works, but takes a long time. While its trying to send, it
also seems to block Mozilla from making any other network connection (even just
HTTP traffic). When I switch to the browser, it won't load any URLs until the
mail has finished sending. This is all on Mac OS X. Build 2002102108,
mozilla-trunk, I believe.

Saving to "SENT" when connected to an IMAP server using SSL on port 993 seems to
be problematic, too, as does just viewing mail in folders on said IMAP server,
but this is covered under another bug, I believe (they just think its fixed -
its not).

Cheers.
