75373 - Can't post to auth newsgroup

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 75007

(MailNews Core :: Networking: NNTP, defect)

Description

[Steve Harris]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16 i586; en-US; 0.8.1)
BuildID:    2001040910

Can't post to a beta newsgroup that requires my ID and password. The messages
are sent, and I get no error message, but they never appear on the server.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Subscribe to a secure newsgroup.
2.Post a message.
3.See if it appears.

Actual Results:  Does not appear.

Expected Results:  The message should show up.

No problem until I upgraded to 0.8.1. Must be Mozilla, since I can still post
via Netscape. The messages appear in my Sent folder, but I was unable to trace
what happend to them.

Have you tried with a build from today?

[(not reading, please use [e-mail] instead)]

from the description, it sounds like auth news, not news over SSL.

I believe we have this problem.

Hrm.  I can post just fine to poisonivy.mcom.com (which is a password 
authenticated Collabra 3.52 NNTP server) using today's (4-13) builds on Mandrake 
7.2, Mac OS 9.1 and Windows 2000.  Can you tell us what kind of NNTP server this 
is?  Thanks.
