entally created an identical email acct, how to I delete the newer one and not the old one? And I'm receiving e's just from the new one.

Move the "e's" (email messages?) to the old account first. You can drag and drop.

To remove an account in Thunderbird:

Tools|Account Settings|<select the unwanted account>|

Down at the bottom of the left-hand pane, Account Actions then Remove Account.

Are both accounts using POP? That could explain why new messages appear in the new account but not the old.

It could help to post your Thunderbird settings data: Help|Troubleshooting Information. Clear the "Include account names" checkbox. Click on "Copy text to clipboard", then paste (ctrl+v) into your next posting here.
