My aol.com IMAP is used directly only for travel. The same email address serves my Thunderbird POP email. Currently, ALL incoming mail goes to the AOL server. I cannot see the messages nor answer them on the local system. I store nothing on the AOL server. How can I get the incoming mail to the local email tool?

Any work-arounds?

do you have Thunderbird set up with a working POP account for that address?
