Sorry for sending incomplete report!

In Thunderbird's Account Settings for Movemail accounts, options for all entries
of "default identity" are missing.
This way, users having just only one movemail account and nothing else have no
chance to set "Reply-to Adress" or "Signature File".

There is a text string saying: "The following is a special account. There are no
identities associated with it."

Nevertheless, the following prefs are generated, clearly showing the association
of "id1" with "server2":
user_pref("mail.account.account2.identities", "id1");
user_pref("mail.account.account2.server", "server2");

user_pref("mail.server.server2.directory",
"/home/username/.thunderbird/default/Mail/localhost");
user_pref("mail.server.server2.directory-rel", "[ProfD]Mail/localhost");
user_pref("mail.server.server2.download_on_biff", true);
user_pref("mail.server.server2.hostname", "localhost");
user_pref("mail.server.server2.login_at_startup", true);
user_pref("mail.server.server2.name", "[e-mail]");
user_pref("mail.server.server2.type", "movemail");
user_pref("mail.server.server2.userName", "username");

user_pref("mail.identity.id1.compose_html", false);
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.doBcc", false);
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.doBccList", "");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.draft_folder", "mailbox://bodo@localhost/Drafts");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.drafts_folder_picker_mode", "0");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.fcc_folder", "mailbox://username@localhost/Sent");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.fcc_folder_picker_mode", "0");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.fullName", "- Full Linux Username -");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.smtpServer", "smtp1");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.stationery_folder",
"mailbox://username@localhost/Templates");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.tmpl_folder_picker_mode", "0");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.useremail", "[e-mail]");
user_pref("mail.identity.id1.valid", true);

Confirming. This is a regression from bug 250247.

Movemail should show am-main.xul, not am-serverwithnoidentities.xul and it did
before bug 250247 with fixed.

Attachment: Account Settings" show "Local directory:" instead of "Signature file:"

Will this Bug 256969 also be fixed by that patch?

Yup. :-) I just marked it as a dupe. Basically the wrong main preferences pane
is shown for Movemail accounts. My patch fixes this.

But bug 253519 is unrelated to this bug.
