If using a recent version of THunderbird, there is a delete button on right side of account pane. If an older version, there is an 'account action' menu in left sidebar of account settings pane

I have migrated the profile files from my old PC to the new one (WS11) after creating thunderbird with my 7 email accounts and now, all the email accounts are duplicated (and I receive notifications for new messages twice !!!). I'm looking for a solution for this problem.

Is there just one account in thunderbird? The button does work, as I just tested it.

Forget my last response, as I see you have seven accounts. are you trying to delete the default account? That may be the issue.

No ! I have 7 different email accounts (this is why I stick to TDB even though it is now possible to manage this with some other products (e.g Google gmail).

Solved the problem. Do not know exactly what I did wrong the first time but everything looks OK now. Thanks for your interest anyway.
