I have two email accounts in two separate email systems, each accessible only via proxy servers (two different proxy servers). I only see one place in Thunderbird 38.1.0, at Preferences>Advanced>Network & Disk Space>Connection Settings to set up the SOCKS host. Is there a way two specify two SOCKS Hosts?

Thanks,

Paul

Thanks. I'll try using profile manager to handle this.

I don't think so. You'd need two separate profiles.
