This has been resolved. I was impatient. On dial-up, it takes a while to load IMAP accounts first time, and the window freezes while the account loads. It takes a minute or two to load, the first time. Thereafter it is faster, but the window still seems frozen and partial (just frames visible) during this time and will frighten the newcomer.
Perhaps a little warning that dial-ups need to be patient when loading IMAP accounts the first time would be helpful.
