. As I said, out of desperation, I tried an imap account, the Thunderbird creation process was much different and it tried for messages without complaining about the password, etc.
I will need to test it further but it looks hopeful.
Problem with imap it seems to me is that it will tend to add to my usage each time I check messages whereas pop maintains the message files on my computer. I have an allotment of ViaSat usage for the month and have to pay for extra, it is already expensive, but all that I can get in this rural location, and it works well including their voip phone service.
Thanks for your help,
Bob
