Details

Expected Result: Messages would be downloaded and placed in a folder

Actual Result: Nothing at all

Using build # 2000022414
schmitty2000, are you using POP or IMAP?

I am using a pop server


Works fine for me using a current build on NT. Lisa or Esther, could you try it 
on a Mac? schmitty2000, could you try a more recent build? See 
http://www.mozilla.org/binaries.html
I just tried build number 2000030909. Unfortunately I cannot test to see if the 
get message button works because I cannot get throught the account wizard. I get 
the wizard to come up, then I get to the screen that has you enter you name and 
email address. I can enter my name, but I cannot goto the other box(both by 
pressing tab and clicking in it with the cursor). So because of this, I can't 
check with the latest daily build. I'll try again tommorow. Maybe this is another 
bug perhaps.

What you are seeing is bug http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31186.  
Please try today's build when available since that bug was marked fixed.

Phil - Get messages does work on Mac - it passed our smoke test in yesterday 
afternoon's build.

Using build # 2000031509 on Mac 8.6, I still cannot get the get mail button to 
work.  I have tried everything possible, and cannot get Mozilla to even try to 
receive my mail. I am using a POP account. I have set up my preferences with the 
correct server name and ID. I have tried the get new messages button as well as 
the menu item, and still cannot get Mozilla to even bring up a window saying 
contacting server. If I am doing something wrong, please help me and this bug 
will be forgetten, but until then, I have to say that it is definately a bug for 
me atleast.

Can you attach your prefs file?
Do you mean my Mozilla Registry from my preferences folder?
