When app wants to contac the news server it sometimes displays a prompt to enter
username and password. When having multiple news accounts defined - one doesn't
know which one should be entered, since it;s not stated on the prompt!!!

I can verify this. The prompt doesn't specify which server is requesting
username and password authentication. <= 1.75 Mozilla
Here's the popup in question - no indication of which server needs auth.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".
This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.
While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.
If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

It's still there in SeaMonkey 1.0a. Popup is exactly as the attachment shown
above from 2/10/2005. Is this that difficult to figure out ? It's just a
matter of adding the server name to the popup message so you know which password
to use.
