Well, it might seem like this and indeed thunderbird prefers imap.

However, in the initial window, where you do your server testing, there
is a nice button just right of "imap", which makes you choose "imap" or
"pop".


Last time I had to configure Thunderbird from scratch, I had to go into
IMAP setup, as that was all it allowed me to do, then cancel it, to find
the pop selection box. But, that was over a year ago. Ric
