To anyone affected,
We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. This bug was reported a long time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Thunderbird since that
time.
Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported in a
currently supported version of Ubuntu? IF so, has the bug been reported
upstream to Mozilla?
Please let us know if you are still affected by this issue otherwise
this bug report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.
Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

Title:
Still unable to connect to 1 particular POP server
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
For years I have been reporting this same bug and I see, with this
fresh install of Thunderbird on my Ubuntu machine, that it is STILL
NOT CORRECTED. Regrettably I don't have the prior thread for this
complaint so I'll have to start "fresh".
I have 5 e-mail accounts that are POP accessible. 1 at yahoo, 1 at sstar.com,
1 at comcast.net and 2 at sursum-corda.com.
Those on the sursum-corda.com server (which I operate) are inaccesible via
Thunderbird. Any attempt to connect and Thunderbird sends "CAPA" and posts
this pop-up message: "Sending of username did not succeed. Mail server 10.0.0.3
responded: CAPA". Precisely what it has always done.
Here is the log snippet from the POP server:
===========cut============
* 08:17:07 (9) Incoming connection from 10.0.0.20 on 04/26/09.
] 08:17:07 (9) +OK Internet Rex POP3 server ready <3250.1240755427@mailserv>
= 08:17:07 (9) AUTH <<<<<<<< "="
is an incoming command from the client
] 08:17:07 (9) -ERR Unrecognised command. <<<<<<<< "]" is a reply from
the server to the client
= 08:17:07 (9) CAPA
] 08:17:07 (9) CAPA
= 08:17:16 (9) USER marc
] 08:17:16 (9) +OK Need password.
! 08:18:17 (9) Connection closed: timeout receiving command. <<<<<<60
seconds of waiting for Thunderbird
===========cut============
At one time, one of the coders of Thunderbird said that he thought he had
removed or altered the log-in algorithms
to correct for this anomaly; but apparently he had not, and the problem
continues to this date. Note that I am able to access that pop account from
ANY other e-mail client, including: The Bat!, Outlook Express, Outlook,
mail2web.com, PMMail/2, PMMail Pro, etc.
It should be noted that SENDING mail from Thunderbird via the SMTP server at
sursum-corda.com IS successful:

Can someone please take up this coding issue and get it finally
corrected?
