I set up a new OTN login and can now get to the bugs database, but a 
search  for JavaMail finds nothing and a search for 'connect' returns the 
message:

"Your security filter is not ready. Please try again later."

which its been doing since Friday. I'm looking for bug reports about 
Transport.connect() in JavaMail If I search for Transport.connect it just 
says 'no hits, which I know is a lie, since I was able to find related 
bugs when I used my old, glacially slow Sun login but not to add a bug 
report.

FWIW, I can't login at all with Opera 11.50. I just get a message about 
the login page being borked and told to contact the system admin, but (of 
course) the error page gives no way of doing that. 

OTOH logging in with Firefox does work.
