<p>I suspect you are running Windows? If so, I'm not sure how to
find out which processes are running and how to kill specific
processes. It's been a few years since I had to do that, so
someone else will have to help with that.<br/>
</p>
<p>The other bit of info to transmit is that Thunderbird is a client
to all the email servers out there. If you like ATT, you can stay
with them and T'bird will handle getting and sending your mail
through them without involving their web interface, and providing
the basic safety mechanisms. If you would like to change to
another email service, that is relatively easy, too. (I won't
recommend the service that I use unless requested; a private or
public request and/or response is acceptable from anyone on this
list.)<br/>
</p>
<p>Thunderbird runs on your computer and fetches mail for you to
view on your screen, or submitting your messages via SMTP (Simple
Mail Transfer Protocol), typically. It can use either the old POP
(Post Office Protocol) or the newer IMAP (Internet Message Access
Protocol) to fetch the mail to be read.<br/>
</p>
<p>Hope this helps a little.<br/>
