#maildev on mozilla irc. going at it completely alone is probably a process lengthier than it needs to be simply due to the size of the codebase. re irc, while many of my various TB-features questions have simply been ignored, a lot have also gotten quite immediate responses from the existing dev crowd. its a good way to gauge actual multiparty interest in whatever youre trying to hack up for thunderbird. i'm also in the process of getting to know TB source better and getting to a point where i can build my own, so i might be able to put in some work on this feature as well.

I am in the "make hardy the best release there ever was"-mood today and have brought myself to really reporting every single bit of problem I have put off for so long so somebody with the needed skills has a chance to fix it. I subscribe to an RSS feed hosted on a password-protected https-site in Thunderbird. TB works fine but periodically asks me for the password although I have marked "save password with password manager" in the dialog. In fact, the necessary fields are displayed filled in, but the pop-up comes back to me from time to time and I have to hit the OK button. I have set up a test installation which is exactly the same as the one I am having problems with at https://clients.leggewie.biz/tester/. The ssl-certificate is from cacert.org, so your browser might throw that up at first. The user you need to get in is tb-tester and the password is launchpad. The RSS feed is at https://clients.leggewie.biz/tester/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges&feed=rss When you susbscribe to that in TB and save the login credentials, you should have TB nagging you from time to time to with a login screen.
