No, that is only telling Thunderbird how to connect to your IMAP and 
SMTP servers.

It's been a long time since I've used Thunderbird.  Maybe someone else 
can chime in.

But, yes, it sounds like you are saying Thunderbird is saving copies to 
your pobox.com server account, instead of mail.messagingengine.com.  Do 
you have IMAP settings configured for pobox.com too?

$record can have a full 'imaps://' URL in it, but it seems a bit strange 
to be reading from one place and writing to another.  Perhaps you can 
re-check the correct settings with your provider.

A quick search found 
<https://www.pobox.help/hc/en-us/articles/360058663654-Default-settings-for-sending-and-receiving-mail>, 
but please check for yourself what is "correct".
