1851767 - SMTP timeouts should be RFC compliant (longer, and configurable per command)

Status: NEW

(MailNews Core :: Networking: SMTP, defect)

Description

[Magnus Melin [:mkmelin]]

Noticed while working on bug 1801668, we don't really do configurable timeouts for SMTP per command, as RFC requires

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5321#section-4.5.3.2

We use mailnews.tcptimeout which is set to 100s for everything.
SMTP timeouts should be minimum 2min and different per command.

Should this split as two bugs?

Comment 2

I don't think it's needed. 100s vs 2min isn't that far off.
