From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) BuildID: 2001110903 After I made some (absolutely regular) changes to my email setup, SMTP send mail stopped working and IMAP works weird. Sending mail hangs forever at "connecting to server" - netstat shows that it is connected, but I could not snoop on what SMTP command it hangs. IMAP problems - can not fetch new mail body. it shows new message headers, but the message body is blank. Offile-download now does downloads the message. The problem started with netscape 6.2 but did not go away when I installed the latest mozilla build Outlook and sending mail manually (telnet 25) to the same server work fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: I'm afraid you can't. Most probably the problem is with my mail settings. Actual Results: send mail hangs forever at "connecting to server" Expected Results: mail should have been sent I can send you my mail preferences if you need. my mail - demiurg@tau.ac.il. Will have to use outlook to read it :)

can you attach your settings into this bug? this would be sort of helpful. ;)

Reporter: Are you using SSL for SMTP ?

attached prefs.js

tried both with,without and optional SSL. Please don't forget the IMAP fetch problem too...

well, not surprisingly all problems went away after removed and retyped all mail preferences.

Sounds like this could be related to bug# 108912. Just opening the Account Settings dialog and selecting the OK button created send problems. Marking a duplicate for now. Please reopen if you think this is different. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 108912 ***
