I'm pretty sure that this is a known bug in 1.0a9 and fixed in CVS (on the
27th of Feb).  I believe what is happening is that something's going wrong
accessing a folder, but the wrong sort of exception is raised and so it
stops, rather than continuing on without using that folder.  Mark definitely
fixed a bug like this on 27/3.

We're hoping to get a new release out soon (early next week?), so that would
fix it.  I suspect, although am not sure, that if you copied a configuration
file from another setup (assuming you have one) and then just reconfigured
without the wizard, that would work (the bug is only in the wizard, IIRC).
