Isnt mozilla suppose to delete the smtp server settings since if you always
add/delete accounts, you will have lots of smtp server settings there

Hi,
No it is not you have to delete each servers one at a time manually.
And I can say I do change my servers a lot and change my accounts a lot so I can
not see that is a add on maybe somebody can create an add on that you can
download  (not required) will do that.
