Voor wat betreft de dramatisch slechte account wizard heb ik de volgende tip.
Download de extensie
Mailtweak,
mailtweak-1.0pre10.xpi.
Installeer hem in TB via menu Extra > Add-ons > Extensies > Installeren (onderin het scherm).
Na herstart het bijbehorende Opties-menu openen.
Zet een vinkje bij "New mail account". De vervelende wizard wordt nu vervangen door een rustig en zelf in te stellen menu.
De bijbehorende Engelstalige omschrijving:
Citaat:
Replaces the Mail Account Setup wizard with a simpler New Mail Account dialog, which does not try to guess the settings you require.
The dialog supports POP3, IMAP and Local accounts. A Local account cannot receive or send mail — it is only for storing local mail folders.
Optionally specify an existing account of the same type as a template, so that most of its settings are copied to the new account.
Optionally check the box "No identity" to create an account that can only receive mail, not send mail.
Optionally check the box "No new SMTP server" when outgoing mail from your new account can use an existing SMTP server.
You will often need to customize your account in Account Settings, unless you have used an existing working account as a template. All the settings except the account type (POP3/IMAP/Local) can be changed later in Account Settings.
Verder bevat Mailtweak nog vele (zeer) nuttige functies.
