Hello,

The user requested to get back their parameters, like identities, local
mail folders, etc.

I diffed the pref.js between old and new account and was surprised to
see that mail.root.imap references a non-existent directory.

It should have been
user_pref("mail.root.imap", 
"/home/affectedusername/.thunderbird/someaccountname.default/ImapMail");

It was instead
user_pref("mail.root.imap", 
"/home/someotherusername/.thunderbird/someaccountname.default/ImapMail");

The first directory mentioned existed, the second not.

That might explain the crash.
