286401 - When I delete accounts in tools, Thunderbird does not update the default to my lone account that remains.

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Jeff Price]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; MyIE2; SV1; (R1 1.5); .NET CLR 1.1.4322; PeoplePal 3.0)
Build Identifier: Thunderbird version 1.0 (20041206)

I deleted two DSL accounts, leaving only one dial up account. Thunderbird 
still tried to access my DSL accounts left over in Thunderbird, although I 
deleted them from the Tools option.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.If you have multiple mail accounts set up, delete them by going to 
Tools>Account Seeting, and then right clicking the account and deleting it 
from the tree.
2. Delete the accounts in the Connections dialog box in Windows.
3. Send Mail. It will attempt to use the old outgoing SMTP mailer 
configuration you deleted. It will not adopt the default remaing in either 
windows or in Thunderbird Account options.

Actual Results:  
My sending failed.

Expected Results:  
Adopt new default mail settings in Windows and in Thunderbird account options.
