Skipped adding account. Went to preferences and set options then closed. Clicked chat tab. Saw notification on bottom of TB about "Lightning" and clicked learn more, then disable. That required restart. Actual results: Upon TB re-open, the "would you like a new email address" dialog is open in center of app, and neither the skip this or configure later buttons work when clicking, even though hover effects work. The chat tab is active in the background behind the new email address dialog. I cannot get rid of the new email address dialog. Perhaps because of there being buttons behind the dialog in the chat tab? Expected results: Either of the skip this or configure later buttons should work, or be able to close that dialog, but there is no close option, and cannot click anywhere else. So... I'm stuck.

The same interface blocking happened again. So it does not matter if Chat tab is there or not. The interface is completely unusable with the new account dialog open. No link or button clicks work other than the checkbox next to the gandi.net provider and the terms and privacy links. User is completely unable to use Thunderbird at this point.

I just re-tested TB 45.7.0 and TB 52.0a2 in new profiles, skipped adding account, modified some preferences, opened the "Chat" tab, then disabled Lightning and restarted TB. At any given moment and on each restart, even if the "Chat" tab is active on restart, the "skip this" and the "configure my account later" buttons both do work and I'm able to either create an account or choose "configure my account later".

Thanks, it correct my issue: Finally I had a look into the Thunderbird > Preferences > (Tools > Options for Windows users) and found that the faulty profiles had the option "Accept copies from sites" un-checked under "Privacy". As soon as I activated this option, the drop-down window "Would you like a new email address" would open with the username filled in and with buttons being responsive again. thanks -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1770587 Title: creation of new email account impossible in thunderbird To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1770587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi again Jean Max. I was looking for duplicates on this issue among the other bugs. I found a promising one, on the Mozilla bug tracker website: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1770587 Will you read it through and see if it matches your situation? At the end, a bug triager named Eckard suggests that it is because of an option that is checked in preferences. Will you try checking the options box and see if that solves your problem?
