Convert POP3 to IMAP

more options

Hi,

We have a POP3 account that was registered in Outlook and would like to access the POP3 emails on all devices that we have using Thunderbird. I figured that it's not possible to do that since POP3 doesn't work that way and this is only possible if you're using IMAP.

Since it's important for us to access the old POP3 emails on all of our devices, these are my questions:

1. Is there a way to convert POP3 account to IMAP in Thunderbird and automatically see those old POP3 emails in a newly created IMAP account?

2. If not, how can we access the old POP3 emails in a newly created IMAP account? Note that the IMAP account that we'd like to use is the same email address we have on our POP3 account.

3. Would we be able to see the folders, filters, sent, trash, etc. once we convert the POP3 account into IMAP using Thunderbird? If not, is there a way to see all of them on all of our devices in Thunderbird?

I'd appreciate anyone's answers to these questions.
