Why Mozilla Thunderbird configured to access Yahoo IMAP server, uses a private IP address, even if there is no other device in the network. Every time, Thunderbird is restarted, it changes remote-host
IP address in the range of 10.0.0.0/8
. Further, the personal firewall has no log showing communication with any private IP.
Thunderbird is configured to access mailbox with following server details:
• Server Type: IMAP Mail Server
• IMAP Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
• IMAP Port: 993
• SMTP Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
• SMTP Port: 465
Current entries in Thunderbird's About:Config
page are as follows:
• mail.server.server1.hostname: imap.mail.yahoo.com
• mail.server.server1.serverIDResponse: ("remote-host" "10.207.128.153" "vendor" "Yahoo! Inc." "support-url" "http://help.yahoo.com/" "name" "Y!IMAP" "host" "sky200409.imap.mail.yahoo.com" "version" "1.1.15491" "via" "10.207.128.153|sky200409.mail.ne1.yahoo.com")
Commands to turn on transaction logging and Thunderbird log are as follows:
C:\>set NSPR_LOG_MODULES=IMAP:4
C:\>set NSPR_LOG_FILE=%HOMEDRIVE%\%HOMEPATH%\Desktop\Thunderbird_log.txt
C:\>start thunderbird
C:\>type Thunderbird_log.txt

I have no Socks or SSL/TLS proxy installed. Only a personal firewall with HIPS support is there. Therefore, traffic from both applications (Thunderbird, and OpenSSL) is passing through the personal firewall.
Further, there is not much information available on Web about Thunderbird's mail.server.server1.serverIDResponse
parameter, value of which keeps changing everytime Thunderbird starts and connects to Yahoo!.
As per RFC 2971 (IMAP4 ID extension) https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2971
The ID extension to the Internet Message Access Protocol - Version 4rev1 (IMAP4rev1) protocol allows the server and client to exchange identification information on their implementation in order to make bug reports and usage statistics more complete.
...
5. Use of the ID extension with Firewalls and Other Intermediaries
There exist proxies, firewalls, and other intermediary systems that can intercept an IMAP session and make changes to the data exchanged in the session. Such intermediaries are not anticipated by the IMAP4 protocol design and are not within the scope of the IMAP4 standard.
However, in order for the ID command to be useful in the presence of such intermediaries, those intermediaries need to take special note of the ID command and response. In particular, if an intermediary changes any part of the IMAP session it must also change the ID command to advertise its presence.
A firewall MAY act to block transmission of specific information fields in the ID command and response that it believes reveal information that could expose a security vulnerability. However, a firewall SHOULD NOT disable the extension, when present, entirely, and SHOULD NOT unconditionally remove either the client or server list.
Finally, it should be noted that a firewall, when handling a CAPABILITY response, MUST NOT allow the names of extensions to be returned to the client that the firewall has no knowledge of.
Am I victim of Man-in-the-Middle attack, caused by the Home WiFi Router? I want to be sure that private IP address in the range of 10.0.0.0/8
have indeed been supplied by Yahoo!, and not by my WiFi Router.
remote_host

range, whereas OpenSSL command output mentioned a real IP address. Both results were observed from same device, using same Internet connection, and at the same time.s_client
