Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.8) Gecko/20020204 BuildID: 2002020406 Mozilla 0.9.8 doesn't allow to configure the TCP port for the outgoing SMTP server. Netscape 6.2 did allow the syntax host:port, but that doesn't work with Mozilla. The background is, that I'm using our company SMTP server (with SMTP authentification), when I'm on the road. However, there are providers that block port 25 on their border routers, so I'd like to use the alternativ mail drop port 587. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to send a mail via your.favourite.sendmail.server on port 587 2. 3. Actual Results: No way to configure that, Netscape's your.favourise.sendmail.server:587 doesn't work either. Expected Results: Add a port field or accept Netscape's format.
