26870 - New Profile does not require single signon before downloading mail

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 39338

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect, P3)

Description

[ppandit]

Using a debug build on /mozilla tree on Windows NT built today (2/7/00)

1) Create a new profile
2) Add a POP3 account (parp4 on parp.mcom.com)
   a) During setup, provide password and click checkbox to remember it
3) Do a GetMail 
4) Server is accessed and no single signon dialog ever came up

Since no dialog came up, I assume this is a bug.

Sounds like mail is never calling single-signon in this case.  Reassigning to 
jefft.  Jeff, if you think this is a single-signon problem, then reassing it 
back to me.

Sounds like we need to hook up single sign on with account wizard.

Mass moving to M16 to get these off the M15 radar.  Please let me know if this
is really an M15 stopper.

Alec, is this really a problem that should be fixed in the account wizard?  Are 
we storing the password unobscured and then just using it?

Comment 7

[Alec Flett]

uh... this should be happening, but it might not be hooked up for some reason.
I'll look into it.

Mass moving M16 to M17 - look for nsbeta2 before anything else.

Recommend this bug to be resolved as duplicate.  This was a bug when entered, 
but according to bug 39338 this is the correct behavior now.  Checking the box 
is creating a "null" password and user does not get a Master password box.  Bug 
39338 is still being discussed and reflects more current discussions on how this 
should work.  I will mark it as duplicate and verify it, if anyone disagrees 
please comment in this bug after reading bug 39338.
