225637 - Prompted for password even though Mozilla is not configured to check for mail

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Brent Pitman]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007

May be part of the problem in bug #219162, except that I'm being prompted for a
password at random times even after deselecting "Check for new messages at
startup", "Check for new messages every N minutes" and "Automatically download
new messages".  Note the the previous attempts the "Get Messages" were successful.

I'm also experiencing bug #224754, which may or may not be related.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
It usually happens after several hours of use.  This only happens on 1 machine I
use - all the others are OK.



Expected Results:  
Mozilla shouldn't check email unless it told to do so.  It should need a
password to not check mail.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
