Yahoo email was giving me error messages so I wiped out my old passwords and then logged in again. I have 2 different accounts on Yahoo that I read with TBird. After resetting passwords and logging in again, now my emails addressed to account 1 are being delivered to the Inbox for account 1 AND the Inbox of Account 2. How do I get the emails to only go into the Account 1 Inbox? I thought maybe my message filters were part of the problem so I deleted them all. But incoming messages to Account 1 are still going to both account Inboxes.

Chosen solution

I tried removing the password for Account 2 and logging in again. That seemed to fix the problem. Account 2 is no longer getting the emails addressed to Account 1. I have no idea how this problem occured but I now consider it solved.

It appears that Account 2 Inbox is connected to the same Inbox as Account 1. That is why both Inboxes get the same incoming messages. How do I change the Inbox of Account 2 to point to the correct location?
