No "email account" option in new account wizzard

[Rip Stuart]

Hello. When I try to create a new account I can only create a newsgroup 
account. I don't get to choose if I want to create a maillist/newsgroup 
account or an email account. After filling in my name and my email 
address it inmediately asks for the newsgroup server.

I'm probably doing this wrong. I'm using seamonkey 2.31 on Linux.
Thank you

Here is the fix.



I had the same problem with an old account to aioe.org. Set associated 
mail.server.server#.valid to true. The account appeared in the account 
panel and deleted it. Fixed the new account wizard.

ok I'll never do that again, thank you. If I won't click on those links 
then I'll have to always manually subscribe to newsgroups. The only part 
that gives me trouble is filling in the newsgroup server. I don't know 
how to find it. I know the newsgroup server for this seamonkey newsgroup 
is "news.mozilla.org" only because someone told me. But how are you 
supposed to find that? Should I start another thread?

On the community page, linked to above, there is a section titled 
Newsgroups / Mailing Lists which includes


mozilla.support.seamonkey

End-user support, ask user questions about SeaMonkey here.

Newsgroup: mozilla.support.seamonkey

subscribe/unsubscribe

Google Groups: view topics

Mousing over the mozilla.support.seamonkey, following the "Newsgroup" 
sub-header, shows it links to

Mousing over either of them doesn't show me anything... oh wait, it does 
when I re-enable the status bar. You're right folk. Thank you
