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: ===========cut============= * 08:33:14 (9) Inbound connection from 10.0.0.20 at 04/26/09. ] 08:33:15 (9) 220 sursum-corda.com Internet Rex ESMTP daemon at your service. # 08:33:16 (9) EHLO [10.0.0.20] LOG KEYS: "*" = information ] 08:33:16 (9) 250- sursum-corda.com Hello [10.0.0.20] "]" = outbound reply ] 08:33:16 (9) 250-8BITMIME "#"=inbound command ] 08:33:16 (9) 250-SIZE ] 08:33:16 (9) 250-AUTH CRAM-MD5 LOGIN ] 08:33:16 (9) 250 HELP # 08:33:25 (9) AUTH CRAM-MD5 # (line suppressed) ] 08:33:25 (9) 334 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ] 08:33:25 (9) 235 Authentication accepted. ===========cut============= Can someone please take up this coding issue and get it finally corrected?
