Note
Autoconfiguration is helpful for not having to enter usernames and servers, and can be done using Mozilla's MCD (Mission Control Desktop).

Information is available here:
http://mit.edu/~thunderbird/www/maintainers/autoconfig.html

Good examples here:
http://www.int-evry.fr/s2ia/user/procacci/netscape/en/mozilla-autoconfig-en.html#htoc12
NB If you don't want to lock preferences you can substitute "defaultpref" for every instance of "lockpref".

And this looks like they've used the above as a reference:
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/MCD,_Mission_Control_Desktop_AKA_AutoConfig

Also in there is LDAP related configuration, for example for getting a user's full name from just their current login account name. LDAP addressbooks can be configured from there also.
