Title:
TBird does not give a second chance to log in
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
I have several email accounts that I have set up, at my company email.
Email in these accounts are downloaded by IMAP over SSL, and the SMTP
outgoing is using the "TLS-if-available" option.
Account1 is the default account. When I log on to TBird I type in the
password and all is fine.
Account2 is another account. I typed in the wrong password, and then
TBird showed me the list of folders under that account as Account2 ->
Inbox -> Trash, and that is all. There are no messages in the inbox
or anywhere else, and none of the expected folders appear. This is
reasonable considering that I have not properly logged in.
What is not very reasonable is that I cannot fix the error, by just
clicking "Get Mail" to encourage TB to prompt me for the account
password again. Instead, it simply reports "There Are No New Messages
On the Server" in the status bar. This isnt really true --- it has no
idea if there are no new messages. It should at least be honest and
say something like, you are not logged in so I cannot get new mail for
you. And then it should allow me to log in properly.
