User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; uk-UA; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040702 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; uk-UA; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040702 When the first mail account is created by the "wizard" or when adding a new account, one can chose POP or IMAP, but not IMAPS. I already know, to go into account manager and click on the 'SSL' checkbox, but it is unduly difficult to explain to a novice over the phone. Another minor nit is handling of the `+' signs in the username part. Historically, <user>+<anything> meant the e-mail was for <user> with <anything> intended to help the user's filters and sorters. So, when I enter `mi+mozilla@aldan.algebra.com' as the e-mail address, Mozilla should be smart enough to suggest `mi' as the username, not `mi+mozilla'.
