263883 - SMTP-ServerList is public, you can not give another account another SMTP-Server.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 90507

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Account Configuration, enhancement)

Description

[Nico Domagalla]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910

In the account manager of Mail/News you can configure a SMTP-Server for
out-going messages, you can add and remove other SMTP-Servers, too. But what i
miss is that another account may have another SMTP-Server, that's not fine.
SMTP-Servers are globally. I think that you have to do so that every Account
gets one SMTP-Server, so any accounts may have any SMTP-Servers.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Account manager
2. Add one account
3. You see, that accounts who send at GMX.net and other accounts, maybe
YAHOO.de, that you can't send with all everytime, because you have one SMTP-Server.
Actual Results:  
-

Expected Results:  
-

Duplicate SMTP entry when account definition is already resolved by Bug 90507.
Closing as DUP of Bug 90507.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Multiple_SMTP_Servers for
current design.
See Bug 202468 for unkind SMTP related UI improvements(is in progress).
