My new emails are not showing up in my INBOX. Instead, Thunderbird is 'creating a file' each time. Looking at my account information, new emails are going into Profiles/sizzquuo.default/imapMail/pop......... Is there a way to reroute new emails to INBOX? Thank you.

Is there a way to reroute new emails to INBOX? Thank you.
