I have downloaded Mozilla Thunderbird 102.7.1.

After installing, opening the program, and clicking on Email, I am unable to configure the Thunderbird setup for my existing email address.

My existing email provider is SpamArrest. I am wanting to download all of my existing email messages from my SpamArrest account to my new Thunderbird email account. SpamArrest tech support informed me I needed to create a new SpamArrest in Thunderbird. I haven't been able to get passed the Thunderbird Account Setup page to even know if I have created a new Thunderbird account. I have tried auto-detect and configure manually of the configuration, I have used POP3 and IMAP protocol with the account configuration provided to me by SpamArrest tech support and nothing is working! I have been trying since last week!

Can someone, anyone please help?

Try again, but omit entering password. That often works.
