Either way, I'm never presented the option to select what KIND of

and email address, and the second wizard screen asks for my NNTP news

accounts, not a second IMAP mail account.


I had a similar problem after I created a newsgroup account. For some
reason, the Wizard didn't give me the option, after that, to create
anything but NNTP accounts.

Someone had posted a solution, which was to change something in the
prefs. I don't remember what and I suck at searching in Bugzilla. I
found the following, which is rather similar and gives you a string to
change.

If that's not it, maybe someone else will have better luck than me
locating the proper Bugzilla report.

Thank you, that's it! Apparently something went screwy with my "news.mozilla.org" newsgroup account. So the New Account Wizard wasn't presenting the "Type of Account" screen, but rather jumped right in to trying to "fix" that account.

The link you provided talked about manually changing your "prefs.js" file, but I found that simply deleting the "broken" account and re-creating it does the trick also.
