Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 202468

(Thunderbird :: Account Manager, defect)

Description

[marco]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

i think everything is said

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create two email accounts like [e-mail] and [e-mail]
in thunderbird
2. set [e-mail] and its smtp account as default
3. create a new smtp account, refering to the @blabla.com account, set the smtp
account settings of the [e-mail] account to the new smtp account
4. create a new identity for the [e-mail] account, e.g.
[e-mail]
5. try to send an email with the [e-mail] address
Actual Results:  
thunderbird will try to send it with the default smtp server -> sending will not
be possible  concerning to the difference between the domain of the smtp server
and the  domain transmitted as sender adress

Expected Results:  
thunderbird should use the smtp account set as default for the email-account of
the identity

Are you setting up the non-default account to use the nondefault server (Account
Settings, Outgoing Server)?

for example
2 smtp servers:
1. smtp (default): smtp.email.com
2. smtp: smtp.blabla.com


2 email accounts:
1. account (default):
email: [e-mail]
pop: pop.email.com
use default smtp (smtp.email.com)

2.account
email: [e-mail]
pop: pop.blabla.com
use smtp.blabla.com
2.account->additional identity
email: [e-mail]

sending an email with [e-mail] will send it trough default
smtp (smtp.email.com)

Presumably you are using a 1.0.x version of TB.  (Remember to include the build 
next time you report a bug.)

The SMTP server actually needs to be specified individually for each identity.
The UI for this has been much improved, in trunk builds -- bug 202468 -- so that 
you actually *can* specify it per identity without having to manually edit 
prefs.js.

This is INVALID because the bug is already fixed and you didn't check against a 
current build.

That is the 1.0.x build -  now quite outdated.  This (and much else) is fixed on
trunk builds.  If you want to stick to release builds, you'll have to wait for 1.1.

I think this is more a dupe of bug 202468 than invalid.  Marking as such.
