how do I get Thunderbird to allow me to choose SMTP than IMAP when reinstalling after a system crash?
I had a system crash in Jan. After the crash recovery (Windows had written over parts of the disc but recovered most things; however, they were set to states as if they had just been installed), Thunderbird did something I was unhappy with & I reinstalled it. When I did, it did not allow me to select IPOP or IMAP but came up with IMAP, which I had never used before & knew nothing about. However, now having read about IMAP & having used it with Comcast, I dislike it intensely--it's slow & cumbersome & doesn't allow me to save emails with everything permanently attached to them. I haven't had the time to pursue it until now. How can I get back to using IPOP?

POP and IMAP are the two incoming mail protocols. SMTP is the outgoing mail protocol.
Maybe when Apple invents their own email protocol it will be iPOP like all their other iSomethings
Here are the instructions for switching Thunderbird from IMAP to POP..
