246490 - Error Messages coming from news server are truncated

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(MailNews Core :: Networking: NNTP, defect)

Description

[Frank Wein [:mcsmurf]]

When a NNTP Server returns a error message and Mozilla directly includes it, the
first four characters are truncated. Patch will be attached. You can reproduce
it for example by holding the space key in a newsgroup, so that you cause more
connections to the newsserver than allowed.

Seems somebody else fixed this bug... 4 months after mcsmurf opened this bug.

CVS blame indicates no bug number.
