User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4 When setting up the first/initial account, the user is not prompted for their SSL and/or port requirements. However, upon completion of the login information, Thunderbird immediately logs into the account. This means that the un/pw is passed unencrypted over the wire during the initial setup. This may also cause a novice user, who's not comfortable going any deeper than the intial setup wizard, to have to make their way through the acct config screens to activate SSL. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Thunderbird 2. After setup is complete, begin by selection "Email Account" 3. Once the email address, server names, etc. are entered, after clicking next/finish, TB immediately checks for folders, new messages, etc. SSL is only enabled by going deeper into the acct mgmt screen. Expected Results: The initial acct setup wizard should ask for the user's SSL requirements.
