When trying to configure thunderbird to work with our website, no matter what we do, it keeps producing error messages, even though everything is correct, and will not finish the configuration. And others that worked previously have ceased working all together. We have tried both SSL and Non SSL, both username as simple portion before the @ and with the full address. have tried both imap.txprioritythree.com and mail.txprioritythree.com and does not work.

How does it not work? What error messages do you get?

I take it that txprioritythree.com is your own domain. Has your webhost told you this is the right address? In some systems, you'd need to use the real address of the server.

The Bluehost instructions are here:

https://my.bluehost.com/hosting/help/email-application-setup

mail.txprioritythree.com for the IMAP (port 993), POP (port 995) and SMTP (port 465) servers, SSL/TLS security, authentication = normal password, User name = email address.
