seems similar to bug 219188 which should be fixed in 20030916. Can you attach a log via "create a new attachment" ? See instructions here: http://www.mozilla.org/quality/mailnews/mail-troubleshoot.html#imap

.

See bug 219657 for POP3 log. There is no oddness in the log that I can see.

Confirmed.

Shortening summary

I don't think there's anything helpful in here, but just in case.

taking - Michael, can you try attaching a pop3 protocol log? Also, could you e-mail me your prefs.js? Do you have pop3 leave on server set?

In response to -- ""Additional Comment #8 From David Bienvenu 2003-09-19 07:21"" SUMMARY ... can you try attaching a pop3 protocol log? The log is created by Mozilla, but remains empty..... even afer closing Mozilla. Also, could you e-mail me your prefs.js?

Unfortunatelly there was more than one change between 20030911 and 20030916. Could you lower it down to one day? So trying 20030914 and if it works, 20030915; if not, 20030913.

Darin, it turns out this regressed 09/12,which is after the dns rewrite landed, I believe, and before my pop3 delete from server changes landed. Michel is using dns addresses as host names for pop3 and smtp server, and it's stopped working. Michel sent me an error message recieved when using smtp with the 09/12 build but I can't read it (perhaps a webmail problem).

Answer to #10 and #11 Here is the dialogue with David Bienvenu, including the misreceived gifs: http://leonardo.bryant.edu/pub/Moz/Answer_030919_2131_.html Michel

-> Darin

Darin has a patch for this - it's specific to win98/me, apparently.

VERIFIED/dupe.

After looking at the dupes more closely (while not understanding mail logs well), I see how SMTP problems like Bug 220409 were caused by bug 219376), but I'm not sure the POP problems were. Can someone confirm this works better now, I'm not certain I should have verified/dupe.
