Hello! Steps to reproduce the bug: 1. Fresh open claws-mail 2. Now open "Account preferences" window (Configuration > Preferences for current account) 3. Now close the "Account preferences" window You'll see no other window popping up. Totally expected UI behavior. 4. Now, open "Edit accounts" window (Configuration > Edit Accounts) 5. Close the "Edit accounts" window 6. And now open the "Account preferences" window (Configuration > Preferences for current account) You'll see "Edit accounts" window popping up automatically. I think this is because "Edit accounts" window is in cache (that's good for speed) but why to invoke the "Edit accounts" window from cache when "Account preferences" window is closed? This is not at all expected UI behavior.
Sorry, forgot step 7. > 6. And now open the "Account preferences" window (Configuration > Preferences for current account) 7. Close the "Account preferences" window

Closes bug #4022: Closing "Account Preferences" window opens "Edit Accounts" window if "Edit Accounts" window has been opened before at least once.
