02-16-08-M14 commercial build: Should give opportunity to authenticate for multiple accounts when trying to copy/move a message to IMAP mail accounts that you are not logged into Steps: 1) Setup more than two/three IMAP accounts. 2) Tried to copy/move a message from the 1st account to an IMAP account that are not logged into 3) Actual Results: It does not display the password dialog for the authenticate during the copy/move within multiple accounts. Expected results: Should display the display passwords dialog for the authenticate during the copy/move within multiple accounts.

This is actually a more general problem. Another example: 1) Two IMAP accounts and your sent folder is set up to the second account that you're not logged into.
Hardware: PC → All
Other examples not necessarily tied to multiple accounts: 1. Drafts/Templates folder location is set to your (primary) IMAP server. 2. You have not yet authenticated to the server. 3. You compose a message and save it as a draft or template. Result: a login failed alert appears, but you haven't been presented with a login password dialog. Should we decide to separate some of these cases into their own bug report(s), let me know.
I'm going to mark beta1 as this can be confusing.

Summary: Should give opportunity to authenticate for multiple accounts when trying to copy/move a message to IMAP mail accounts that you are not logged into → Should authenticate to IMAP server during move/copy operation
Target Milestone: M15
Bug http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29340 is fixed. My case that I mentioned on 2/17 is now fixed. We need to check the other cases.
can someone try the other cases? I don't know any test IMAP accounts.
I just tried cases using 2000-03-07-09commercial build on linux and it looks like the cases specified are ok now, login prompts appear. Will double-check on other platforms before marking verified. Any other specific instances that might show up we can log separate bugs. OK for filing messages across IMAP servers. OK for saving drafts/templates to online server not yet authenticated
Seems OK on all platforms. Checked with: 2000-03-07-09m15 commercial builds linuxrh6.0, mac OS 9.0, NT 4.0 Marking verified.
