Title:
  Can´t add mailaccount

Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I tried to add my IMAP Server to thunderbird 10

  1. if is start it it asks me to create a Hotmail or AOL account SRSLY WTF? I don´t want such shit!
  2. after clicking thru some menus i try to add my IMAP Server which IS! accesible from my network here (tried to telnet it and it works).

  After i enter my information in some kind if wizzard it first tries to
  find my settings from mozilla (which i don´t want it to do, because i
  don´t want to know mozilla my serveradress, but i am not even asked!)

  Well it doesn´t find any information (i don´t epected that as no one
  knows my mailserver LOL), because it can´t find that information it
  keeps telling me, it can´t add that mailserver ("Es konnten keine
  Einstellungen für ihr E-Mail-Konto gefunden werden")... so even if i
  manually enter the serveradress and the port / ecryption method, it
  justs asks the mozilla db and doesn´t even try to connect to my
  server..

  I hope Canonical chooses to not include such features in there coming
  releases of ubuntu or someone forks that mozilla crap and removes all
  that bloatware features...

  I consider that as a bug, because adding mailservers not in the
  mozilla ISP Database is impossible or just doesn´t work.

  There is no way of adding a server manualy without the shitty wizzard
  which many people don´t want, because they know what they are doing!
