One site had a failure that caused empty but valid autoconfig js to get
downloaded to the client.  This led to a failure going forward because we lost
the e-mail address to append to the autoconfig url, but didn't prompt for a new
e-mail address because we had some other prefs set
(mail.accounts.defaultaccount...) The intention was to only prompt for e-mail
address for new or newly migrated accounts. The upcoming patch prompts in all
situations so we can recover from the failure.
