From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2.1) Gecko/20010901 BuildID: 2001090111 I use gmx.net for email. I have two different accounts, one bob@gmx.net, other john@gmx.net Both need to auth to send mail, with there own username. They use the same outgoing mail server (which seems to be the problem) Bug: Edit -> Mail/News account settings edit outgoing server (SMTP) add mail.gmx.net bob@gmx.net ssh when avilable default: mail.gmx.net john@gmx.net ssh when avilable Select an account -> Advanced -> Select drop down Now, when you try to select the entries to assign them in accounts. You get blank white spaces, and only the default mail server comes up. This ONLY happens if you use the SAME out going mail server name. ie. mail.gmx.net Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Edit -> Mail/News account settings edit outgoing server (SMTP) add mail.gmx.net bob@gmx.net ssh when avilable default: mail.gmx.net john@gmx.net ssh when avilable make two different email accounts, try to assign these to each. John to John, Bob to Bob.. Only the default will come up. Actual Results: Only the default comes up. Expected Results: Both servers listed.
a. i've never met ssh when available. you probably mean ssl. b. i thought that the outbound mail server was just a server and not a username+server c. as a workaround (and i have needed to do this for inbound) you can find a second dns/ip entry that resolves to the same computer.

wfm linux build 2002072704. akumapwr@gmx.net: can you try a recent nightly build and see if you still can reproduce it?

Also with latest build on my (Suse) linux box (with kde 2.2)
This is related to bug 41929 and bug 55540. All describe the same problem and the workaround is probably the same.
If this is still happening with 1.1 or later, why is this not a dupe of bug 41929? pi
So....here comes my first bug report....I am not not very experienced but still: Here you are. First of all my system's configuration: I am using mozilla 1.1 on a Windows XP Professional system, but I have "experienced" ;-) this problem on Windows 98, too. I have also had this problem with the outgoing servers with some older releases (p.ex.: 1.0, 0.98 etc.). I have several mail accounts of "GMX" and "WEB.DE" being managed by one mozilla account. THE BUG: The dialog "Advanced Account Settings" contains empty entries, even though I have entered 5 outgoing servers in the dialog on the screen shot 2. I don't know, why this happens, but it really sucks. Chris
I think this is best dealt with in bug 41929. pi *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 41929 ***
