I'm hoping David can make some sense of this log.

Comment 4

[David :Bienvenu]

not much sense, I'm afraid. I don't see any results coming back from the ldap server at all.

I managed to capture some LDAP activity on a log file. Please check out this post:

I don't recall seeinf if this is XP specific but:

I would suggest that you check for IPv6 the ldap directory service attempts to connect to the ipv6 socket ::ffff:xx.xx.xx.xx instead of the ipv4 socket xx.xx.xx.xx

This is consistent with the last few years and on the thunderbird 3.0a1 that I just downloaded/installed it still fails in the same way on a dual hosted ipv4 ipv6 machine.
Logging ldap:5 only produces the following:
0[274310]: nsLDAPOperation::SimpleBind(): called; bindName = ''; 
2348[278d2d0]: nsLDAPConnection::Run() entered

I do have WinXP Home (v2002, SP2) installed. But I do not have IPv6 installed.

Christos or Ira, please can you try the released version of Thunderbird 2 and see if you still have a problem. Thanks.
