User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; iOpus-I-M; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Tools, Account Settings..., Outgoing Server (SMTP) Settings, Advanced.
Delete button grayed-out for default server.
If Thunderbird were changed to allow deletion, and set the default to the top
of the remaining list this would be an improvement.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set an SMTP server as default, in a list of >1.
2. Attempt to delete it.
Actual Results:
Delete button is grayed-out.
Expected Results:
Delete button is available.

If there are more than two servers in the list, the software may select the
wrong one of the remaining list to be the default; not only is the user now
required to check the result, and possibly manually select the server, but there
is a chance that the erroneous selection will be overlooked. I think it's
better UI to force the user to select the new default first.

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

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.
