728552 - UI: drop redundant "Mail & Newsgroups" from menu text, leave "Account Settings"

Status: NEW

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Account Configuration, defect, P5)

Description

[mploug]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:10.0.2) Gecko/20120216 Firefox/10.0.2 SeaMonkey/2.7.2
Build ID: 20120216055339

Steps to reproduce:

This is not a bug but a suggestion.
In the Seamonkey mail client I went to Edit > Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.
I suggest that the text "Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings" is renamed to just 
"Account Settings". 


Actual results:

The Account Settings windows opened ok.


Expected results:

I just suggest that the text "Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings" is renamed to just 
"Account Settings".

Since that menu item only appears in the "Edit" menu of the Mail & News window, it's unlikely that just "Account Settings" would cause any ambiguity. Shortening that label thus seems to be a reasonable suggestion.

Lots of occurrences though, follow the MXR search URL I've posted above.  :-\
It's not just the menu label, much of the Help text would need adjustments.

Well it's already inaccurate because we now have RSS accounts. In future we may be getting other types such as Twitter and IM.

And even "Local folders" is different to normal "Mail and Newsgroups" accounts.

And help anyhow will need some review.
