Hi all,
I've recently switched OSes from Windows 7 (64-Pro) to Ubuntu Linux Mate 18.1
I was using T'bird on my Win PC. T'bird came with Ubuntu & so I set it up as a POP3 account, The same as on my Win PC. A little while later, it occurred to me, after doing a little research, that using IMAP would be better for my situation So, I changed my Win PC T'bird configuration over to IMAP. Now, I would like my Ubuntu PC to be IMAP too, but I've been unable to be successful at re-configuring my T'bird account in Ubuntu. I keep scratching my head as no matter what I try, nothing works. I even thought of uninstalling T'bird & reinstalling it, but I don't know how.
I'm very new to Ubuntu & so I don't know how to do a whole lot, yet, much less reconfigure T'bird.
Can someone please walk me through the correct procedure?
THANX in advance!
Also, what does it mean every time that I start T'bird I get an error "Unable to open spool file"?
