My primary email account in Seamonkey Mail is an IMAP account, and I'm
trying to also setup a secondary account that I use for mailing lists.
I've tried this using two methods. The first is going to
"File->New->Account...". The second is right-clicking on an existing
account, selecting "Setting", and clicking the "Add Account" button on
the pop-up.
Either way, I'm never presented the option to select what KIND of
account I want to add. The first screen in the wizard asks for my name
and email address, and the second wizard screen asks for my NNTP news
sever. Apparently, I only have the option to add more newsgroup
accounts, not a second IMAP mail account.
Am I really missing something obvious, or is this a known bug in 2.02?
Thanks in advance!
I have 10 distinct IMAP accounts set up in SM 2.0.2 Mail/News, so it is
clearly possib le.
There are several ways to access the add account wizard.
File>>New>>Account works, as does Edit>>Mail and Newsgroups Account
Settings>>Add Account. Your right CLick version also gets you into
Account Settings.
When I click the Add Account link, I am presented with a dialog to set
the type of account, email, Blogs and News Feeds, Newsgroup account, as
well as a couple of others that are platform specific. Select Email
Account, then Continue.
On the next page, enter your name and email address, click Continue.
On the third page of the wizard, where you enter your incoming server
informatio is where you make the choice between POP or IMAP.
Sounds to me like you are clicking through the first page of the wizard
without making the proper selection, though, since Email account is the
default setting, I'm not sure how you are getting into the Newsgroup
setup dialog.
