Description axelheider 2023-08-28 12:29:00 UTC
thunderbird-102.14.0-1.el8_8 can no longer open any connections. POP, IMAP and even simple browsing fails. 

Starting Thunderbird in the console with logging (MOZ_LOG=Mailbox:10,IMAP:10,SMTP:10 thunderbird) brings this:

The issue seems to be known (2229906) and a fix has been rolled out for RHEL9.2. What we are still missing is a fix in RHEL8.8.

Looks like thunderbird 102.14.0-3.el8_8 that finally fixes this issue. Seems it just took a while until the update process made this version finally available for me also, it always kept giving me older versions that had the issues.

Comment 2 Tomas Popela 2023-08-28 14:04:47 UTC
Yes, thunderbird-102.14.0-1 was accidentally built against newer NSS and when delivers to customers that were running the currently released one, then Thunderbird misbehaved.
