97871 - SSL SMTP impossible due to dialog error

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 91466

(Core Graveyard :: Security: UI, defect)

Description

[Jonathan White]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010802
BuildID:    2001080214

When trying to do authenticated SSL SMTP send, if the certificate of the server
is not from a recognised signatory a dialog pops up to say so and give the
choice to accept or view details. However this dialog loses focus as soon as it
appears - focus goes back to the progress bar. While it is possible to move the
auth dialog, it seems impossible to put it back into focus to 'ok' it and the
progress bar has no cancel option - the only option therefore is to kill the
app, the message unsent. The dialog is also the wrong size  and the OK button is
only partially visible. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.set up an SMTP server with a self-signed SSL certificate
2.try and send an SMTP message out via that server 
3.

Actual Results:  The focus is on a dialog with no cancel option that will never
complete - therefore the app is effectively dead.

Expected Results:  Keep focus on the certificate query dialog so it can be
completed.

Assigning target of 2.1 to all bugs fixed in the 2.1 target timeframe whose
target was not 2.1
