I'm not sure what you mean with 'disabled'. You'll need to enter your credentials into the form.

'disabled' means that this filed is locked for input, so that I cannot enter the email address to add the account. I'm running Thunderbird 31.6.0 on Windows 7 I found the save problem with 31.6.0 on Linux
