I have 3 companies, so I want 3 separate email identities. I do not want to have to supply all 3 company account passwords just to read email from "Company A".

In Outlook Express the 3 identities were totally separate. I simply logged into each account individually and closed out to got to the next company account.

How do create separate accounts or identities in Mozilla Thunderbird? I created and can get separate locations for each email, but for some reason opening and sending seems to be confused regarding the outgoing server, which appears to be global for all 3 accounts. When I change the setting for Company A, that setting is applied to the other two accouints which is why it ask for that password to send an email. How do I make each account truly separate?

Add each account starting from File/New(or AppMenu/New Message)/Existing Mail Account, and under Tools/Account Settings, select an account in the left pane, then click the Outgoing Server (SMTP) drop-down in the right pane to make sure the account is using the corresponding outgoing server (not necessarily the default server). It appears Co. A is the default account, and the others are set to use the default outgoing server.

If you don't want (POP) mail checked at startup or periodically, adjust the settings in Tools/Account Settings/accountname/Server Settings, and if it is a POP account, click the Advanced button and uncheck "Include this server when getting new mail".

Otherwise, for POP accounts, select the Get Messages drop-down to select a specific account.
