Hello Jeff,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with encrytion and
Thunderbird.
You made this bug report in 2012 and there have been several versions of
Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then.
Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the
ticket?
Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect BUGNUMBER
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for
this particular issue.
Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.

Title:
smtp configuration is unclear about encryption options
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
It appears that STARTTLS and SSL always encrypt all traffic, yet they
both list password options that suggest optional transmission of
unencrypted passwords. The code may (or may not) be fine, but the
documentation could stand to be improved.
The help menu took me to this page
http://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/manual-account-
configuration?s=starttls&as=s
which also suggested

Thanks.
