One PC runs Win7, one PC runs Win8. We have lot of mail addresses, and not too much storage for emails on the server. It's a company mailing, so to be secure, I want the PC-s to store the emails on hard drives. That's why I connect with POP to the server, and a tell Thunderbird to leave the messages on server for half of a year.

How can I manage to set up one e-mail account for both PC-s working at the same time with Thunderbird? The IMAP is not an option now.

Thanks for the answer

Really, IMAP is the only practical option. POP is not suited for access from multiple devices - because once a message is downloaded on device A, the default settings are to remove the message from the server thus it won't be available for device B

I have read in forums, that making a dropbox folder from the local directories on both devices is a solution. Do someone tried it? Pros, cons?

Well, dropbox can screw up, if there are changes on both sides, than the side which will write the changes last, will overwrite the changes from the other side. I have no experience. If there is only one machine at a time running, I guess it could work. If both are up at the same time, it doubt it will work.

IMAP server are not that expensive any more, I would suggest switching to imap, and ether let the mails beeing forwarded to the other server, or let them be collected.
