Just finished upgrading to TB 1:91.4.1-1~deb10u1 amd64 on Debian buster (10), and my local spool email was removed from active accounts.

Went to re-add to Accounts with Edit -> Account Settings -> Account Actions -> Add Other Account

and the presented with the "New Account Setup" popup, however the only account option now is "Newsgroup Account"

The others options "Blogs & News Feeds" and "Unix Mailspool (Movemail)" no longer are on the "New Account Setup" popup.

Has local *nix email support been removed from TB codebase?
