Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 137701

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Account Configuration, defect)

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0rc1)

On a reply to a USENET message I Saved the message in my Drafts, as it was a
long message, and I didn't want to lose it.

I have three (3) news accounts: one for local newsgroups, one for
netscape/mozilla, and the other is a global read/post account that I subscribe
to most groups through.

Wen doubleclicking on a save message to post a message to a group that is only
in the global account, the message was posted with my unprotected local account
credentials.  This account is first in Account Manager.  I do not have a mail
account.

This is highly unexpected behaviour.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a USENET posting, possibly a reply
2. Save the posting as a Draft
3. Open Local Folders/Drafts and post from there

Actual Results:  Message was posted with my unprotected credentials (i.e., name,
email, organization) from my local account, instead of the account that the
message is posted through.

Expected Results:  I'd expect that the account that the newsgroups is subscribed
through would be the credentails posted with messages in that newsgroup.

Resolving as dup of bug 137701 for now. I think there are older bugs on this
