[nmglug] Paranoia not asuaged, but fix found for failed incoming server in Thunderbird--no thanks to Comcast

[Tom Ashcraft]

Mozilla support forum came through:


Terminal command "nslookup imap.comcast.net" yields imap.comcast.net    canonical name = imap.ge.xfinity.com.


Substituting imap.ge.xfinity.com for imap.comcast.net in the Thunderbird email account "manual setup" window works properly as it should.


Hopefully I'll achieve similar results with Kmail and Sylpheed.
