No way. Thing wanted to set up an account and refused to play

You mean an email client wanted you to setup an email account? Wow,
how absurd :)
Indeed. I just wanted to "kick the UI tires". But hey.
Mutt doesn't do that. Of course, I won't be able to send
a mail without an account set up. I know that.
Hello thunderbird: if you insist in infantilizing your users
this way, I won't ever be your friend. Furrfu.
Seriously, what account? Never, ever, been asked to do anything
untoward when installing Thunderbird and I've done it thousands of
times, quite literally.
Since you seem to be a Thunderbird expert, pray tell us how to
"bounce" mails (meaning: send a mail you received, as unharmed
as possible, including headers, to some other party) -- most of
the time for analysis.
