227685 - password not sent to imap server

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 417957

(MailNews Core :: Networking: IMAP, defect)

Description

[Ulrich Drepper]

I have this problem since 11/22 or very shortly after.  Earlier versions work
just fine.  I'm using a local imap server and use a secure connection (not SSL).
 Looking at the ethereal output I see the old code correctly logs in, with user
and passwd.  With recent (self-compiled) thunderbird versions the user is still
sent, but not the password:

000  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 08 00 45 00   ........ ......E.
0010  00 3e 45 d2 40 00 40 06  65 0b c0 a8 07 46 c0 a8   .>E.@.@. e....F..
0020  07 46 9f e4 00 8f 5e f4  0b de 5f 40 40 ab 50 18   .F....^. .._@@.P.
0030  7f ff c5 96 00 00 31 20  6c 6f 67 69 6e 20 22 64   ......1  login "d
0040  72 65 70 70 65 72 22 20  22 22 0d 0a               repper"  ""..    

This of course fails.  I can switch back and forth between old and new version
and the old always works when the new fails.

This is on a very recent Fedore Core (Red Hat) version.  No .imaprc file.

This still an issue, Ulrich?

I can see this problem in both 1.5.0.14 (20080314) and 2.0.0.12 (20080213).

[Dan Mosedale (:dmosedale, :dmose)]

Since we've shipped 1.5 and 2.0 with this, it can't be that frequent, so not blocking 3.0a1 on it.  However, since it has a simple patch, we'd very much like to see this land, marking wanted3.0a1+.

Comment 6

[Gary Kwong [:gkw] [:nth10sd] (NOT official MoCo now)]

Moving from wanted‑thunderbird3.0a1+ flag to wanted‑thunderbird3.0a2? flag since code for Thunderbird 3 Alpha 1 has been frozen.

Comment 7

[David :Bienvenu]

is this related to bug 417957? Have you turned off auth_login?

Comment 8

[David :Bienvenu]

The more I look at this, the more I think the work going on in bug 417957 should handle this. I'm going to mark this as dependent on that one for now, but I believe it will end up being a dup.

Comment 9

[Petri Kelottijärvi]

As far as I can see, bug 417957 should solve this bug as well. The solutions are identical in effect.

Mark Corensberg's patch for thunderbird 1.5

obsoleted by patch in  bug 417957. Thx for the patch, though, and please let me know if this isn't fixed in trunk builds for you now.

Comment 11

[David :Bienvenu]

resolving as dup of bug 417957, which although newer, is where the patch that fixed this was developed.
