reporter, 
I am able to send mail using commercial buildid-2001051508. I don't crash 
while sending mail.  We have a know bug which has problem sending mail with SSL. 
Check in accounts and settings, go to outgoing SMTP server. Check SSL settings 
to never and make sure the username field is greyed out. You should be able to 
send mail.  
If you are still seeing the crash please attach the stack trace in the bug 
report.

Putting SSL as "NEVER" fixes my problem
Still, this is a workaround, not a bug. It should be fixed

Comment 3

[Sheela Ravindran]

well, we know it is a workaround but there is a known bug about this problem.
bug 74387.  You can go to this bug and add yourself to the cc list to keep track
Marking this bug a dup of PSM bug 74387 based on reporters comments

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 74387 ***

verified as dup

Hmm, this sounds more like bug 80355; turning off SSL, etc., has not fixed the
problem here.

Any time I *try* to duplicate the problem, I can't, but if I'm writing *real*
mail it bites me every time.  Most annoying.

Aha!  Finally got one to crash.  Talkback ID TB30526731H, from build 2001051606.

Bug 74387 is a hang, not a crash.  Reopening to track the crash separately.

Comment 8

[John G. Myers]

Confirming and taking bug.

Comment 9

[John G. Myers]

Reporter, are you able to get a stack trace?
Please enable SMTP logging with:

setenv NSPR_LOG_MODULES SMTP:5

Please attach the log output to this bug.

I went back to 0.9, because this one is the most stable so far, and does not
suffer this bug.
ANY 0.9+ release would crash anytime, anywhere.
If you guys get a 0.9+ release with talkback back working, tell me so i can test it

This hasn't showed up for over a month. I will mark WFM, unless someone can
reproduce it.

using build id 2001070605 linux I don't see the crash having ssl turned on.  
Please reopen the bug if you are crashing
