I'm trying to use socks5 for smtp, with authentication (and without, no change) and am getting the following errors: while connected to VPN: * Account 'Account1': Connecting to SMTP server: smtp.mailgun.org:465... *** write on fd-1: Bad file descriptor without VPN: * Account 'Account1': Connecting to SMTP server: smtp.mailgun.org:465... *** Socket IO timeout. I can send fine with the proxy off. I don't know if receiving works with the proxy, as this is a send-only account. Windows 10 version 1803

Not yet. Be patient. Thanks in advance.
Hi, it's been a year and I'm still having the issue, currently using windows 10 v1909 and claws version 3.17.4 32bit. *** write on fd-1: Bad file descriptor It's the same error with a vpn on or off now, so at least that's progress?
I have Claws-mail 3.17.4 installed and this bug is listed in the changelog. However, the issue persists: I tried setting SOCKS proxy by different means: * Main panel -> Settings -> Proxy * System settings -> Proxy (dconf key /system/proxy/socks) * `http_proxy` environment variable None of these had any observable effect. Sending mail is still blocked by firewall and receiving continues to work even if I stop my proxy tunnel. I'm of the impression that this bug is not fixed.
reopening as Adam confirmed the fix didn't work
