Ah - sorry.  The newer package is 1:102.2.2+build1-0ubuntu0.18.04.1. As
I noted above, it did not migrate my primary e-mail setup at all and I
was unable to manually configure it.  There was an option for exactly
one password, yet my local IMAP and Gmail's SMTP use different auth
methods and passwords!  The bigger and more immediate question is why in
$deity's name is the previous version no longer available as a recovery
option?  I was able to downgrade back to the base version 60.0, but lost
compatibility with add-ons.  Pulling the immediate predecessor package
is less than the most optimal way to manage the repository.  I looked
for a solid hour yesterday and still could not find a DEB for
1:91.11.0+build2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 (most recent working level).

Title:
  latest thunderbird update not functional with my configuration

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After many troublefree years, I'm sorry to report that the latest
  Thunderbird update for Bionic really hosed me.  My existing local IMAP
  configuration was not migrated and when I try to set it up manually it
  cannot deal with the fact that incoming mail originates in my IMAP,
  while outgoing passes directly to gmail SMTP.  No way to specify two
  different accounts apparently and after about an hour I ripped it out
  and tried to revert.  Unfortunately its predecessor version is not
  available and I had to go back to version 60.0 to regain
  functionality.

  Very disappointing and I hope this will be addressed.  The prior
  version is available on in source form and I'm not looking forward to
  building such a complex app.
