Hi again,
what I've figured out so far is it has something to do with a server being added to the server list.
For testing purposes, I added an entry named 'local' with localhost on port 6667 as server.
When connecting to localhost using '/server localhost 1026' and then closing the connection from the server side, mIRC first tries to reconnect on port 1026, but any other attempts will be directed towards port 6667.
[19:38:11] * [10053] Software caused connection abort
-
[19:38:11] * Disconnected
-
[19:38:14] * Connect retry #1 localhost (1026)
-
[19:38:16] * Unable to connect to server (Connection refused)
-
[19:38:19] * Connect retry #2 localhost (6667)
-
[19:38:21] * Unable to connect to server (Connection refused)
-
....
However, if I remove that server from the server list, it continues to reconnect on the correct port.
Using Version 7.59, btw.
I made a video on how to reproduce the problem:
