I have realized that I may be wrong. I confused november.he-3.net and november.he.net-3. Perhaps november.he-1.net was obtained from your email using an autoconfiguration protocol. However I am still surprised that 2 ImapMail directories have been updated.

If you are interested in going deeper, I would check modification time of various files under  november.he*.net and would had a look into .thunderbird/dpchrist/prefs.js. Currently used dirs are like mail.server.server1.directory (with various numbers).

There are some open bugs related to changing server name, e.g.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1483485
however I am unsure that any of them may be relevant to your configuration.


My Debian, Thunderbird, and message filters are working very well.  :-)


One complaint is that Mozilla included whitespace in file and directory names, which we all know causes grief when using the shell:
