For some reason, I am getting message that the Certificate for server is not valid (etc.). I can not get or send my emails as of this morning. Is there something I can do to resolve this issue?

Try to create an exception in Defender for the Thunderbird profile folder, so that the Defender real-time scanner will not scan it. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-thunderbird-stores-user-data#w_how-to-find-your-profile

My mail provider is https://webmail.windstream.net.
account1: INCOMING: account1, , (imap) imap.iowatelecom.net:993, SSL, passwordCleartext OUTGOING: , smtp.iowatelecom.net:465, SSL, passwordCleartext, true

Are Windstream and Iowa Telecom the same email provider? Check with your email provider about the correct server names.

They are the same. sorry for my delay in trying to get this resolved.
