11 years of not resolving this bug? Just close it then and be a man about it. My (horrible) solution is an AutoHotkey script which keeps feeding the password (stored in the AutoHotkey script) into the login dialog - and even that is a big pain because Thunderbird drops key events under heavy CPU load (and when it polls for new messages it is making heavy use of the CPU), so additional synchronization is necessary. Who knows how many people use a similar hack/solution - security-ad- absurdum forced by an 11 year old bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/08 Title: user-id and password not sent automatically for rss-feed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/08/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Eric, you're right, this bug actually has a split personality for me. 1. Saved passwords are not getting automatically used 2. Some (exact criteria unknown) login and password combos are not getting saved at all, despite repeated form fills (comment 67) They may or may not have the same underlying mechanism responsible. Pointers to more related bugs are welcome here. SPE addon fixes scenario 2, which is even worse, because you have to manually copy/paste from another password db like KeePass on every Thunderbird startup. But yes, I still have to Enter key currently through 4 authentication prompts, an amount which can only increase. Still, thanks to SPE, my life is incrementally better now and I can focus on looking for a solution to scenario 1. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/08 Title: user-id and password not sent automatically for rss-feed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/08/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re Postbox: In the Thunderbird dev cycle, we will accept changes that result in failures if users run a modern Thunderbird, and then downgrade to a version of Thunderbird prior to Thunderbird 17. Postbox branched from Thunderbird prior to version 3, and it is unknown how much functionality they have backported.

Hi Leho, I'm now using Postbox, which still has the bug (once each session I must click OK on a password prompt, but the name/password are already filled in), but apparently Postbox is not compatible with this add-on. Were you having the same problem and using this add-on made the problem disappear? I don't quite understand, because it's clear that my password is already saved in the password database, so I don't understand how this add-on would help. If it really does fix it, then I'll install Thunderbird and fix my profile, which presumably would then work correctly in Postbox. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/08 Title: user-id and password not sent automatically for rss-feed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/08/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 222208]
Leo, thanks for the response. Even after installing Addon Compatibility Reporter I'm still unable to install AutoAuth as-is in my TB 5.0. I've made the change to install.rdf similar to the one described by brian (comment #47) and that helped. The thing is that criticism in comment #28 still applies. I don't think that it's a correct way to do things. As far as I understand the problem itself lies somewhere in the base Mozilla code which is used by all the products. The workaround with the AutoAuth is not perfect and hard to find. E.g. this problem is bugging me for more than a year, and only today I finally found this bugzilla issue. It was easier for me to go looking for alternatives to TB..

(In reply to comment #47) Just found a quick workaround: 1) Download AutoAuth Plugin My workaround without tweaking and installing an add-on has been FreeMyFeed (http://freemyfeed.com) lately.

I also use a password-protected RSS feed over https from a self-signed site that I've added a permanent exception for.

I'd actually quite like it to not ask me at all (I've saved the username and password, but every time it pops up a dialog with them filled in that I have to click ok for), but I don't think that was the OP's complaint. -- password protected rss feed on https gives problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/08 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Well, if you tell me about a site with a PW-protected RSS feed over https somewhere out in the wild, I'll gladly do it ;-) I guess there aren't too many which is why my report included a test case on my own server.

[Bug 222208] [NEW] password protected rss feed on https gives problems
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: thunderbird This is a bug I have seen for quite some time. 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:Recentchangesfeed=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. ** Affects: thunderbird (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- password protected rss feed on https gives problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/08 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
