37181 - Need UI for setting Pop3 server prefs - limit_message_size & max_size

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect, P3)

Description

[jefft]

Need UI for setting Pop3 server prefs:

user_pref("mail.server.server1.limit_message_size", false);
user_pref("mail.server.server1.max_size", 50);

Also, we need to remove the global UI prefs currently implemented in the browser 
Preferences dialog box.

Mass moving M16 to M17 - look for nsbeta2 before anything else.

[Alec Flett]

ok, fix is in. 
Jennifer, can you update the spec for this? I am open to changing the wording
since there wasn't a spec to begin with, but you can see what it looks like
right now in the account manager for a POP account - it says
[X] Limit message download to [ 50 ] kB per message

Alec, is this different than the pref in Disk Space:

"Do not store messages locally that are larger than [ 50 ] kg"??

Comment 6

[Alec Flett]

I _believe_ it's different, right jeff? this is sort of a "maximum bytes" of a 
message that we'll download - for example if you get a 100k message, we'll only 
download the first 50k until you actually go to read the message...

I don't see this in the UI for Account Settings on my POP account.   Did this 
get in the UI?  OR is this another scenario of the layout bug that shows up in 
commercial builds. See bug 38198

Sorry, I meant ...OR is this another scenario of the ovelay problem Seth is 
running into for bug 38198.

Alec, I see this pref in the linux mozilla build for 5-23, I will check the 
commercial build for 5-23 when it comes out.

Using commercial build 2000-05-23 on Nt4.0, mac and linux this is in the UI and 
by default set to false.  Still need to test around this, if bugs are found will 
log specific new bugs.  Resolving as fixed again
