I've followed the process of adding an email account but on the page title Setting Up Your Existing Email Address, when I click "Done" at the base of the page, I get an error message "Error Creating Account, Incoming Server already exists.

My suggestion is to : - remove account - exit and restart thunderbird - set up the account and DO NOT enter password - after account is set up, then check for mail and enter password when prompted.

D/l & installed TB 102.9.0 on Win 11, setting up @verizon.net account (uses IMAP or PoP.aol.com for incoming host name & smtp.verizon.net for outgoing) ). It automatically found settings for Pop3. I tried to manually config for IMAP but could not. Allowed to setup with Pop3 & it went right through & works! However, I want IMAP. Following Mozilla's Support article to switch from POP to IMAP, receive the "Incoming server already exists" error. I'm at a loss. Time spent & frustration is so high. Please help.
