Steps to reproduce:

Upgraded from 91.11 to 102.2.2 using Ubuntu 18.04 main repository.

Actual results:

My primary e-mail account was not migrated. It uses a local IMAP with very basic authentication for incoming mail and Gmail SMTP w/ Oauth2 for outgoing. Different account names and passwords for the two. The name 'IMAP Local' did not even appear as a choice and when I tried to setup manually I was unsuccessful. There appeared to be no option for specifying local IMAP and remote SMTP using distinct accounts and passwords.

Expected results:

It should have simply showed "IMAP Local" as an account and allowed me to receive and send e-mail. After a lot of hair-pulling I found the previous version buried in one of Ubuntu's repositories. Manually downgrading brought everything back to proper function immediately.
