You need to create a new account in POP3. You cannot change an existing account from IMAP to POP or from POP to IMAP

Here's an article about how to do just that. A main point you should take from this is that you should not try to "change" an existing POP3 account to IMAP. You should, instead, first disable the POP3 account, then create a new IMAP account in Thunderbird.
