Why on my Linux machine aren't my edits of Thunderbird account settings saved?
When I recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 I automatically got Thunderbird 24.4.0, which is mostly working well. However, I find I can't change the account settings. I can open the account settings, and apparently change them, but when I exit from that edit (by clicking on the red x at the top left - there doesn't seem to be any way to save my edits) all my changes are lost.

I've found the answer to this (my own question!), so here it is, for anyone who has the same problem.
At the bottom right of the Account Settings window there is an OK button that you need to click to save your edits and exit. I couldn't see that button because the Account Settings window (that opens when I click on Edit | Account Settings) was too big for my screen. However, the OK button appeared when I happened to click on the maximise button (two along from the red x).
