I added a new imap- Account to Thunderbird. But all new messages of that new account are going to the inbox of my second e-mail account. I didn't set any filter.

How can I solve this?

I´m using Thundbird up-to-date (78) on a Mac.

Thanks for your help

Problem solved. My fault.... I remembered that I have activated email forwarding 8 months ago. Therefor the emails went to the wrong inbox. Sorry, for any inconvenience and for your support,

Are all messages to the new account going to the second account, or just replies to messages that were sent from the new account?
