72833 - IMAP won't connect to localhost

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 72831

(MailNews Core :: Networking: IMAP, defect)

Description

[Mark Koch]

Starting with build 2001030222, I can no longer
connect to localhost using IMAP.  This feature/setting
works fine in nightly build  2001021510.  
I could find no other win32 builds between those dates.

I checked the latest build, 2001031915 and the
problem is still evident on my system.

My company has a program that runs a IMAP forwarder
on my PC's localhost ports.

I am able to telnet into localhost:143 to verify that
the port is active.

The Mozilla mail app simply waits when I click on
INBOX.

I was not able to locate any similar bugs.

This problem difinitely happens between the two builds
I mentioned above.
