Re: AW: Re: James 3.0 RC1, [resolved] Thunderbird failing to find settings for socketTLS in imap and smtp conf

[Mike Lepore <mi...@gmail.com>]

Yep, thanks for the help.  after reading your response, I noticed in the 
imap conf file, I didn't change the binding port from 143 to 993.  I 
then changed the smtp conf back to StartTLS=true as you suggested, and 
left the binding to port 25.  Thunderbird works just fine now.

thanks,
