M14. Need to pull this into B1 to get password encryption. I sent email on the
details behind this. See me with questions or concerns.

so I spent some time last night looking at this. I think what we need to do is
somehow pass in an nsIPrompt at the time the protocol or URL is created.. then
we pass this nsIPrompt to nsMsgIncomingServer::GetPasswordWithUI() which will
use it to prompt.
We should be able to get the nsIPrompt from the nsIMsgWindow's mRootWebShell
member variable, and I believe an nsIMsgWindow will be available at URL creation
time.
Single sign on for Pop3 and Imap checked in.

Auth login for SMTP apparently not been ported over yet. Need to work on it
before applying single sign on to it.

Fix checked in. To test SMTP signle sign on. You need to set up the smtp server
and the username. Also the add the following pref to the prefs.js:
user_pref("mail.smtpserver.smtp1.auth_method", 2);
for the record the following are defines for smtp auth methods
typedef enum _PrefAuthMethod {
PREF_AUTH_NONE = 0,
PREF_AUTH_ANY = 1,
PREF_AUTH_LOGIN = 2,
PREF_AUTH_TLS_TRY = 3,
PREF_AUTH_TLS_ONLY = 4
} PrefAuthMethod;

Using build 2000-02-17-09 on win98 and 2000-02-17-08 on linux and mac I've
tested the POP and IMAP and they work. However, I haven't been successful with
SMTP password. Jeff , I added the string mentioned above in the prefs.js file
and in the Account Settings dialog I have entered a sever name and user name for
the SMTP server, this did not prompt me with a password dialog. Note: I then
tried to check the box titled "Always use name and password" but it won't stay
checked, so if that has to be checked to test the smtp server login, then I
can't test smtp until this is fixed. If checkbox doesn't have to be checked to
test smtp, then smtp is not working yet. Please advise.

Esther, you need to find an SMTP server that advertises AUTH=LOGIN or AUTH PLAIN
capability. I do know that smpt.mail.aol.com does if you have an aol account. I
am not sure any of our own server does that.

you mean, smtp.mail.aol.com right?

Yes, sorry typo. Also, make sure your identity matches -- meaning an aol email
address. Aol smtp checks for both email address and the password in order to
succesfully sending mail.

Using build 2000-02-16-09 on win98 and 2000-02-16-08 on linux and mac this is
fixed. Note: I get the master dialog, (but I'm not sure if it's coming up
because it's trying to open the sent folder or sending function) so I cancel the
master dialog and it brings up the specific password dialog for
"smtp.mail.aol.com". I consider that this confirms it was asking for the master
password on the smtp server. Jeff, please review and re-open if the test
scenario isn't valid. Note: At this time, I can't disable the copy to Sent
folder for the AOL account to bypass that function.
