Title:
Thunderbird hardcodes the SMTP server to smtp.domain.tld
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
When trying to create a new account Thunderbird hardcodes the SMTP
server to SMTP.domain.tld. There are mail systems where host
smtp.domain.tld does not exist and the outgoing server is something
else (in my case mail.tut.fi) and Thunderbird can't create a account
for those.
This can be worked around by adding smtp.domain.tld to /etc/hosts, but
that's not an option for regular users.
$ host smtp.tut.fi
Host smtp.tut.fi not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
$ host mail.tut.fi
mail.tut.fi has address 130.230.162.20
mail.tut.fi has address 130.230.162.19
cat /etc/hosts |grep tut
130.230.162.19 smtp.tut.fi
$ LC_ALL=C aptitude show thunderbird |grep Version
Version: 6.0~b3+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu2
