Searchable id: yorba-bug-6760
Original author: Eric Gregory
Original description:

When we built the account editor, we decided not to allow the user to change
their IMAP server or username. This is to prevent users from trying to switch
to a different account, which would throw of Geary's ability to keep messages
in sync.

SMTP doesn't have this problem since there's no synchronization involved. We
should allow users to switch to a different server entirely if they want.
