Using Spamarrest with Thunderbird

I have two email addresses protected by one Spamarrest account. When setting up Thurnderbird, I have entered the Spamarrest server information for the first one and it was accepted and is working. But when I enter the server information again for the second email address (both use the same server information) I get a message saying that information has already been used. Without going through the Spamarrest server, I will continue to get spam on the second email address, which I do not want. Is there any way to set up a second email address on Thunderbird that uses the same server information as another email address? Thank you.

Are you using two SMTP server setups?

Yes, the only server Spamarrest gives me is smtp.spamarrest.com but what I really need is to use Spamarrest as an incoming server so it will filter out the spam before it gets to me. The only server it gives me for that is mail.spamarrest.com so I was using that for both emails.

If you have two separate email accounts, you need two incoming servers and two outgoing servers. Treat them as two separate accounts. They may have the same names, but the email accounts keep them separate.
