I'm just getting started with Thunderbird on Windows 10. To test it, I set up my yahoo IMAP account xxxxx777@yahoo.com using a yahoo app password. It worked fine, so I deleted that account and set up my 'real' yahoo IMAP account, which is xxxxx@yahoo.com, using another app password from Yahoo. This is a different yahoo account, so I needed to get another app password. Again, that account worked fine.
However I then chose to delete that account on Thunderbird and return to using my xxxxx777@yahoo.com yahoo IMAP account, by getting a new app password and following the Thunderbird instructions for setting up an account. The trouble is that Thunderbird is now connecting to my xxxxx@yahoo IMAP server and receiving those emails and folders instead of my xxxxx777@yahoo.com emails and folders. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird and rebooted the computer. Thunderbird 'account settings' is correct.
The first tab in Thunderbird is "email- xxxxx777@yahoo.com", and the folders that follow are from my xxxxx@yahoo.com account. Each time I receive an email on my xxxxx@yahoo.com account, it shows up in Thunderbird under my xxxxx777@yahoo.com account.
I'm stumped.
Thanks, David
