POP3 on new PC

I am trying to install Thunderbird on a new PC. I have Thunderbird installed on another PC. I have two email addresses. Both are POP3. I successfully installed one email address on the new PC. However for the second email address Thunderbird did not provide an option for POP3. I need POP3 to play with my spam blocker.

I believe that I can answer this because I have run into this myself. on the first page of the setup where you enter your name, e-mail and password, there is an option to configure manually. Check that and then you select pop3. It has been a while but I think I remember that entering a bogus password will cause the initial login to fail and then you are given other options.
