I have installed Mozilla 0.9.3 on an NT 4.0 workstation and migrated the profile from a Netscape 4.6. In my setup I use multiple news servers. I have noticed the following problem when posting news messages ("New Msg" or "Reply" icon) : Mozilla always tries to post this message to the *last* news server on the whole server list, not to the currently selected news server. Of course, this makes it pretty useless to be used with multiple news servers. Note that reading messages from different news servers works as expected.

Marcel, please use the big "Report a Bug" link on bugzilla.mozilla.org when reporting bugs in the future. What build are you using? Can you come up with an exact testcase for us to reproduce it? Thanks

> Marcel, please use the big "Report a Bug" link on bugzilla.mozilla.org when > reporting bugs in the future. Sorry. I didn't know there were different ways of entering bug reports. I never entered Bugzilla through the home page, but I used the "QA" menu in Mozilla to first look for known bugs. When I didn't find anything that looked like the bug I wanted to report, I than used the "NEW" link in the yellow table at the bottom of the page. > What build are you using? Can you come up with an exact testcase for us to > reproduce it? I'm using the following (as reported by about) : [Mozilla] Mozilla 0.9.3 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010801 I proceeded the following way : After installing Mozilla (full install) and starting it, I migrated my existing Netscape 4.6 profile to Mozilla. This configuration contained 5 IMAP mail accounts and about half a dozen news accounts. After checking the various news accounts, everything seemed to be OK (except for the login issue reported in #95896), and I could download and view messages OK. However as soon as I tried to post messages (by replying to an existing messages), nothing happened. The message I posted did not appear on the server. Finally, to my amazement, I found the message I posted on a different server. First I thought the problem was due to corrupted news accounts due to the migration, and so I deleted *all* news accounts. Then I created a first account again (on the public server support-forums.novell.com) and I tested it. Posting worked OK (newsgroup novell.community.chat). Then I created a second news account for some internal news server, and I posted to it. Posting was OK again. The internal news server also has a group "novell.community.chat" for testing purposes. Finally I posted another message to support-forums.novell.com, and this time the message appeared on the internal server again. The problem is that I cannot create a test case that is accessible from the outside, as my test server is not connected to the internet, and I have no means of connecting it.

Sounds like bug 54911 to me. Please let me know if you agree.

I read the bug description of bug 54911 and I agree.
