Hi,
I like our current account configuration and wizard. Of course,
it can be improved upon; but, does it mean it should be rewritten?
If so, what would/should it look like? If not, does this mean
we should WONTFIX this?
Or instead of asking 'what' it should look like, how about I ask
what your ideal process of how a user creates a new account?
If the current one needs changing, how would you liked it
changed?
Anyone?

Well, could you please make it easier, to setup your email account in
sea monkey?
You could do this by saving users account info on a sea monkey-Mozilla
server, this would make it so much easier to setup an account in
SeaMonkey: especially, if you have used sea monkey in the past.
You would just enter your email info: such as your name, email address,
and password. Moreover, sea monkey would get your particular
configuration, e.g. if you prefer to use IMAP, it would have that info
in the server.
I do think, that this would be the easiest, and least painful way to
setup an account in SeaMonkey, particularly for the persons who do not
desire to go thru the hassle of setting up an account: e.g. having to
enter the SMTP address, or the i map address, etcetera.
I can understand how aggravating this can be.
I see little point in saving and re-using settings from one email
account and assuming they should be applicable to a new one. I have
several accounts and they (in most cases) use unique SMTP and IMAP (or
POP) server settings. It would be pointless, or nearly impossible, to
take settings from one of several accounts and accurately apply them to
a new one. If the info were pre-filled I'd just have to over-write them
anyway.
Unless I'm missing something in the point of this thread.
