Steps to reproduce:

Upgraded from 91.11 to 102.2.2 using Ubuntu 18.04 main repository.


Actual results:

My primary e-mail account was not migrated.  It uses a local IMAP with
very basic authentication for incoming mail and Gmail SMTP w/ Oauth2 for
outgoing.  Different account names and passwords for the two.  The name
'IMAP Local' did not even appear as a choice and when I tried to setup
manually I was unsuccessful.  There appeared to be no option for
specifying local IMAP and remote SMTP using distinct accounts and
passwords.


Expected results:

It should have simply showed "IMAP Local" as an account and allowed me
to receive and send e-mail.  After a lot of hair-pulling I found the
previous version buried in one of Ubuntu's repositories.  Manually
downgrading brought everything back to proper function immediately.

Title:
  latest thunderbird update not functional with my configuration

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.
