This bug is a wont'fix because the server locks the mailbox and moz
cannot login.

Marking invalid, moz cannot do anything about it.

Navin: whether or not you think this is a wontfix issue it is still a dupe of
bug 91656.  It is clear that the reporter of this bug agrees that this is a dupe
of 91656 as he commented in the duped bug that since he was seeing the same
behaviour on a different platform the bug should be moved to OS/Platform->All/All.

On a separate note, please see my recent comments on bug 91656 as to why this
*is not* a wontfix.  This needs to be fixed.

Anyway, this bug should be left as a dupe and not as wontfix for tracking
purposes.  Reopening to do so.
