Error dialog when setting up a POP3 account in Thunderbird 68

Spotted while updating the test suite (#17269 (closed)), with a Tails built from ca2b6939.
After clicking “Done” in the account setup wizard, I see a pop up dialog:
- title: “Error with account $EMAIL”
- text: “The account $EMAIL is being processed. Please wait until processing is complete to get messages.”
- button: “OK”
I’m inclined to not treat this as a blocker for 4.1 because:
- Pressing OK, which is the only choice given to the user, makes the problem go away and then the email account can be used as expected.
- It could be caused by ca2b6939, which we may decide to revert after 4.1 once we’ve finished the corresponding conversation.
