I am trying to setup my AOL account in Thunderbird. Unfortunately for email in domain @aol.pl I am receiving yahoo.com settings. Moreover even if I manually setup the servers: Server Settings/Port Settings 

Incoming mail server (IMAP): imap.aol.com      IMAP-993-SSL
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.verizon.net  SMTP-465-SSL

it does not help. I am receiving yahoo login page every time I try to download my emails.

Any advice?

Try to set up the account with an @aol.com email address. Once the account has been successfully created, change the email back to @aol.pl.

I have created my_account@aol.com then during authentication I have converted it to my_account@aol.pl. Then after downloading I have changed all emails to my_account@aol.pl except "account name".
