As soon as it starts grinding looking for the automated setup, click
"Manual Config". it will give up on looking for an autodiscover record
and let you enter the servers, etc. manually. No big deal.
Very difficult! I could see once something like this: phenomenon lasted
for 1/10 of second and disappeared.... Most of the time, I cannot even
see the button you're talking about!
As for any menu to click (suggested by other mails) it does not exist!
The only thing I can do is to ask for a new email address from
gandi.net
or
Hover.com Which I don't want!
This happens on fedora 17 xfce....
