I may soon have to lose my current well established e-mail address, with all its Thunderbird-saved e-mails,since my current server may discontinue. Can I set up and use an additional e-mail address pro tem, to set up and run an additional account during a transitional period. I wish to obviate any loss of emails from the outgoing account and be able to transfer them over to a new email and account? Regards, Dafydd

Add as many as you want. From the Menu Bar select File-New-Existing mail account. No menu bar showing? Press the alt key to make it appear
