I'm not sure what that means, and what you're trying to achieve. Note, Thunderbird is an email client, and you can't use it as a mail server for a third party app.

Hello Christ1, Thanks for your reply. I mean that suppose I want to develop an extension, which will use my own Mail Server API's to list emails in Inbox, Send Message and list sent emails in Sent emails in Thunderbird. Can I do that?

This sounds a bit like re-inventing the wheel to me. Whether you can do that or not, I have no idea. In any case, you're probably better off asking in a developer forum/mailing list, than in the user support forum here.
