Using Courier-SSL for IMAP server w/ MacOS X 10.2 on client

- Open mail app
- Click on account in left window pane
- User input menu drops from window title bar but is blank
- Entire application hangs with the spinning colored ball. Eventually have to
force-quit.
- Tried with 8/23 build and 1.1 B with similar results.

Misc:
- Logging into IMAP server with no SSL works fine.
- Logging into IMAP w/SSL worked fine when I had MacOS X 10.1.5 and Moz >= 1.1B

Confirming on trunk. This appeared on the 8/22 trunk build and applies to Mac 
OSX 10.1.5 also. The 8/21 trunk build is OK.

sunkcost@pobox.com, in your step 3, by "user input menu" do you mean the
username and password dialog?

With my mac.com username and password previously stored in the Password Manager,
I  can connect to mail.mac.com via IMAP+SSL successfully using 2002-08-18-1.1.

I don't see SSL related checkins to security/manager between 08/20-08/22.
Nelson, Wan-Teh, do you know, whether SSL logic has changed on NSS_CLIENT_TAG on
08/21? I don't know how I could check myself with Bonsai, since it's a static tag.

Wan-Teh told me, the current base for NSS logic on the Mozilla trunk is
NSS_3_5_BRANCH, and no checkins to that branch have been made after 08/04. It
seems security/SSL logic can not have caused this regression.


I looked on Bonsai who checked in to netwerk or mailnews/imap on the regression
date. See here for the list of checkins:

cc'ing people who checked in.

Unfortunately I don't have a Mac (yet).
I might have a fix for this already.

My guess is that the fix for bug 164404 will fix this too. Please try with
tomorrow's build, thx.
