How do I point Thunderbird to the same email address on another server?

I recently migrated my domain and vps to a dedicated server on a new host. The DNS settings/ip address were changed and have been adequately propagated. My problem now is that my Thunderbird client keeps pointing me to my old server mail. Since the content was migrated from the old server to the new, the same email addresses exist on both servers but we need Thunderbird to point to the new server instead. I have deleted the accounts and recreated them but unfortunately this did not work. Please, how can this be solved? Thanks.

sounds to me like the DNS has not been adequately propagated, regardless of what you think.

Thunderbird looks up whatevermailserver.com in DNS. Unless you have done something like enter IP addresses instead of server names, Thunderbird is entirely dependent on your local DNS cache. 

Perhaps you should flush the local DNS cache.
