My freeserve email will soon not be available so I have set up a new email address with zoho mail via their website. Now I want to add this new address to my Thunderbird email set up. I have enabled POP/SMTP in zoho. I need a new, separate, inbox for this email address on Thunderbird.

When the wizard fails to detect the correct server settings use Manual Setup. https://support.mozilla.org/kb/manual-account-configuration

Make sure to obtain the correct server settings for your email provider before you attempt Manual Setup.
