Build Identifier: 

We are accessing intranet through a proxy with a password...

On linux the proxy password is never stored and it is re-asked each time a web content is accessed...

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
the proxy password should be stored (the user should be asked if he want to store the password)

Regression from thunderbird 2...
Anything in Tools -> Error console that migth relate to that ?

another problem... is that normal that thunderbird always try to use the HTTP proxy for POP,IMAP,NNTP protocol... that's a very bad idea! since a HTTP proxy cannot proxies these protocols!!!!
I can confirm this bug under windows xp:
