Title:
  Selecting Edit-->Account Settings fails to launch correct window.  It
  relaunches the main Thunderbird window instead.

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Linux Distribution:  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx

  What I expected to happened:
  I clicked on Edit-->Account Settings from the main Thunderbird window.  I expected an Account Settings GUI to pop up.  It did not.

  What Happened:
  When I clicked on Edit-->Account Settings from the main Thunderbird window, it fails to pop up the correct Account Settings GUI.  Instead, it pops up a new window which is identical to the main Thunderbird window.  I can check my e-mail in this new window, etc.  The old main Thunderbird window does not close and is still functional.
