On 9/1/16 at 1:06pm, Thunderbird stopped RECEIVING (migrating?) my emails from Windstream. I CAN send emails through Thunderbird still. I need to bring all emails after the 9/1/16 1:06 pm day and time into Thunderbird. I am 79 and cannot do this alone.

No, everything is the same. I still have to get my email from Windstream's mailbox but can send via Thunderbird on emails I originate. I can also reply on Windstream, but hate it.
