203933 - Hostname displayed in the MailNews statusbar is wrong if changed

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 195234

(MailNews Core :: Networking: POP, defect)

Description

[Christian Eyrich]

The hostname displayed in the MailNews statusbar (Connecting to ...) when
getting mail is wrong if it has been changed at least one time in Account Manager.

This seems because of changing the hostname results in creating/change of
realhostname pref instead of hostname (by design, see bug 14295).

The hostname in the status bar is taken from the spec of the nsIURI used by the
connection (see nsStandardURL::Host()). But since this is assembled using
GetHostName() in nsPop3Service::GetMail() this is not the real hostname we are
connecting to.
