From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.7) Gecko/20011221 BuildID: 2001122108 I happen to have two pop accounts on the same server- different names but same pop server. When I try to create the second account it fails complaining that I already have it defined. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.need two accounts on same server 2. 3. Actual Results: n/a Expected Results: n/a Minor, but no workaround.

sheela, can you also confirm?

Build: 2001-12-26-06 linux RH 6.2 I created two pop accounts with the same server but different accounts. I did not see any problem. worksforme. To the person who confirmed this bug and the reporter: If you are creating a 2nd account from accounts and settings, we only ask for the incoming server. We do not ask for the outgoing server again. Attach the screen shot with the error message and also exact steps to be able to see this problem. Can you provide the exact steps to able to see this problem?

Reporter comments via email: OK. I created an account at aplawrence.com for the user name "tony". That works. I then choose "Create New Account", again giving it aplawrence.com but this time user "pcunix". Attached message box which says that an account with the same server and user name already exists- and it does not. However- if I tell it to create "fred" (which I don't need)- that works.. no clue what causes this.. if you can't duplicate it maybe whatever is confused will turn up again some other way.. I can get around it for now

Can you attach the screen shot in the bug. And any furter comments just update the bug so that the engineer also knows what is going on. Thanks.

Sorry I can't seem to make this a more simple case. Interestingly, if I transfer http://pcunix.com/Reviews/mozilla.html to my system and use Open->File, it never screws up, Over the internet it does, though a reload or two will fix it.

Other atachment 62826 had nothing to do with this- sorry.

Account set up problem -> changing qa contact and reassign.

Unfortunately I cannot duplicate the problem. In the Account Wizard after selecting the first radio button to create an "ISP or other email" account there are a number of dialogs. Which one reports the error? 1. Identity dialog - Your Name - Email Adress 2. Server dialog - Incoming Server - Outgoing Server 3. User Name 4. Account Name 5. Summary dialog (Finish button)

It's the final "Finish" that it errors.

Here's a wild guess. http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108387 is about how renaming a POP account with a user name that is bigger than the previous name doesn't work. Perhaps the same check is happening here. "pcunix" is longer than "tony" so it fails but "fred" is the same so it works.

I couldn't reproduce the problem using 01/17/2002 build and I even used the exact same names provided by reporter.
