From the Menu Bar select File-New-Existing Mail Account If the menu bar is hidden press the alt key to reveal it.

OR...

From the AppMenu (button with 3 horizontal lines) select File-New Message-Existing Mail Account.

FYI: There is no such thing as a Thunderbird account. Thunderbird is email client software. Email account come from email providers.
