[tor-talk] Vidalia error message with TorBirdy

[anonymous coward]

Hello,

I start Tor with Vidalia. And I use TorBirdy with Thunderbird.

Sometimes I see a message from Vidalia:

This is from the Vidalia log:
Jul 02 22:34:44.907  Application request to port 143: this port is
commonly used for unencrypted protocols. Please make sure you don't send
anything you would mind the rest of the Internet reading!

Why should TorBirdy connect to 143? There is  nothing on port 143 on my
machine though....

Thank you
