Hold on now. Isn't imap something used to access mail stored on your ISP's, or similar, site? That is, it isn't a POP3 account.

TB asking for the password is surely asking you to provide the password which will access your imap account at your ISP/whatever.

And how do you access the internet- using dial-up or via a broadband ADSL connection?

adsl

and thunderbird ask for master password to store the accounts passords

Don't know....but I am getting the feeling that you have accidentally set a Master Password - simply by hitting <Return> even - and have forgotten about it :-) . Why not just start from scratch: start the new TB 3.0b and set it up for all your needs. Once done, THEN copy over the ~/.thunderbird/<xyz>.default directory with all its files across to the new installation? (You'll probably also need to adjust any "pointers" to the name of the <xyz.default> directory in the (?)prefs.js file - but don't quote me on this as I haven't done such a fiddle for a very loooong time and the prefs.js file may not be the one to adjust. All I can state at this point is to repeat that TB in 11.2 does not ask for the master password - certainly not on the 3 installations I have done over the past days.
