267341 - get no connection to internet (pop, smtp)

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Stefan Strauch]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1)
Build Identifier: version 0.8+ (20041030)

I want to send mail to smtp server or get new mail from pop server.
But i trigger this by any action per menu or button, nothing happens.
No (connection) action is shown on statusbar, still dead.
This behaviour is only when i start and run thunderbird under my admin user and 
version is greater than 0.7.3. Run thunderbird under/as normal user i haven't 
this problem. Haven't test it with a second/another (admin) account.
A fresh, new installation don't bring any changes for the problem.
Another indicator is, when i write a new message and want to send it 
immediately this is not possible because the item in the file menu is greyed.
If i save it by "send later" and do "Send unsend messages" then nothing was 
sent - only the progress radiator works in button bar.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start thunderbird under admin user
2. Do "Get new Mail" or send a new message.
3.

Actual Results:  
nothing, what i can see.

Expected Results:  
Some action (progess bar) in the status bar or progess dialog for sending 
message.

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.

In the actual version 1.0 - or before - i haven't the problem anymore - at now. 
Can't reproduce it.
Seems fixed.
