I am trying to use thunderbird's address book with an Exchange server via LDAPS.
The problem is that no matter what I do, it ignores the port I set (3269) and uses either 636 or 389 seemingly at random. Yes I am saying that even when I check ssl and it autoconfigures to 636 it sometimes still tries to connect to 389.
I have tried deleting the ldap directory settings and creating new ones to no avail.
Any ideas?
Unless you are only having this problem with the Portable version and Not the Standard version it sounds like a Thunderbird problem itself. You should probably trying contacting the Mozilla forums.

{a quick search seems to indicate that the two ports you mention are kind of defaults, where did you get the third one, 3269}
Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?
