100483 - Fix AccountManager to implement DirectoryServiceProvider to give default paths to ISP files

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Account Configuration, defect)

Description

[racham]

In order to obtain the files that are installed under defaults folder of app
install directory, we need to make account manager to implement
DirectoryServiceProvider. 

That allows us to reach all messenger's selected locale defaults by simply
calling the right property. Also, this keeps XPCOM module cleaner by reducing
the dependencies on components like chrome.

This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but has been without a comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project. This means that it was logged against the old Mozilla suite and we cannot determine that it's still valid for the current SeaMonkey suite. Because of this, we are setting it to an UNCONFIRMED state.

If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way.
If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar).
If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state.

Passage of time + lack of reasoning = INCO.
