I am tying to convert my pxxxxxxx@verizon.net email account from imap to pop. When I logged in at first it the changes seemed to be working as the instructions said, but when I clicked "DONE" it said my username and password didn't agree with the ones on file. I tried and tried to repeat for 3 hours last night, and since then I this email account is completely dead - hasn't worked at all today.

Please help!

I can still receive e-mail messages on another email account: bxxx.xxxx@ieee.org. But I hope I can talk to someone on the phone xxx-xxx-xxxx (land line) or xxx-xxx-xxxx (mobile). Thank you.

Please spell out what you mean by "converting" your IMAP-based account to POP. I do hope you didn't simply change the existing account's settings.

You may get the "server already exists" message if two accounts have the same name.

Go to the config editor. Type (or, better, copy and paste)

mail.server*.name

into the search box. Ignore the entries that say "namespace". (if you click "value" to sort by values, I think you'll find all the account names bunch together.) Amongst what remains, check for two accounts having the same name, and change one of them to make them different. Double-click an item to edit it.

Close and restart Thunderbird. See if that helps.
