Hello, When I upgraded to a new HDD I reinstalled TB and it used the default setup. I guess it was too fast for me, because it set up as an IMAP type email and when I tried to convert from IMAP to POP I changed to server to: "mail.comcast.net, Port 995" since 2021.

I saw a suggestion in the Help files to use "pop.comcast.net, Port 995 for a POP3 configuration. BTW, I prefer POP because I like to keep my email saved to my HDD. But, I'm not sure that's happening now because I can't find them except in TB.

So, I want to keep my emails on my HDD and I'm not sure I am doing that at this time. Should I use pop.comcast.net or mail.comcast.net?

First, never attempt to change an IMAP account to POP. For a POP account, start from scratch. I believe comcast recommends pop3.comcast.com, but you can confirm that at comcast.
