Description

[Mathew Boban]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1

The link is the email service of the SUNY Upstate Medical University.
In Firefox 3, the login page always returns a failure, and produces the standard "wrong password" message. 
In Firefox 2 and IE7, the page works perfectly. 

(Oh, and you may assume that the correct password was entered both times)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Try to login to a Groupwise Webaccess server for which you have an account
2.Use FF3 - failure
3.Downgrade to FF2 - win
Actual Results:  
Failed and produced the standard "wrong password" 

Expected Results:  
Log in to the email service

Can no longer test this bug - my parents no longer work there. Close, I suppose.
