Hello, I have such a problem. I have a domain with 10 mailboxes. aaa@xx.pl bbb@xx.pl ccc@xx.pl .... When adding the first mailbox, Thunderbird finds the account settings beautifully (smtp and imap) and the mailbox works fine. After adding a second mailbox in the same domain, Thunderbird no longer automatically finds the mailbox settings. After manually setting up the mailbox, Thunderbird cannot send the email (yes - all settings are correct). Please help

If you have ten mailboxes, you need ten smtp servers defined. look at tools>account settings>account and scroll to bottom of left pane to Outgoing Servers (SMTP) and review the right side pane to confirm existence of ten unique smtp servers, one for each email account.
