Title:
  Thunderbird address book won't use socks to access ldap server

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird:
  Confirmed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

  I have a number of Ubuntu systems on a private lan, behind a socks
  firewall.

  When I use thunderbird I set the network connections to use socks, and
  give it the correct name and port number. Thunderbird itself works
  fine, I can send and receive email without problems. However when I
  configure the ldap server to use with thethunderbird address book,
  thunderbird will not resolve any ldap names to email addresses. I have
  double checked and I'm sure that the ldap settings are correct.

  I sniffed the network during an exchange and I can see that normal
  thunderbird traffic being sent via socks. However I can see that
  thunderbird is trying to send the ldap traffic directly to the ldap
  server, not via socks. I include a wireshark screenshot showing what
  is happening.

  This is Thunderbird 2.0.0.14, and Ubuntu 8.04
