First things first... Thunderbird 80.0b2 (64-bit) LinuxMint 19.3 (tricia) Gnome 3.28.2 Kernel 5.4.0-42-generic

When I go to Edit > Account Settings > Account Actions I get options for 

 Add mail account
 Add chat account
 Add feed account
 Add other account

The chat, feed and other option work fine. The ADD MAIL OPTION just sits there and does nothing. Might the problem be connected to the fact that I already have 44 email accounts and it just won't add any more? Can I go into m,y profile and somehow add it in manually? I know all the port and security settings.

Thanks

P.S. - Their should be nothing incriminating in the screenshot, I hope.
