MAC mail won't delete email accounts

I'm having the same problem that a previous person did and am unable to delete an email account from mail. In fact it has created multiple smtp server links that I can not remove either. I'm removed elements from the key chain, I've tried deleting the mail accounts from internet Accounts but the just come back again. I found a profile setting on my iPhone and removed that but it hasn't made any difference. The email account is linked to network solutions which I have had many issues with over time. Not sure where to look or what options to try. It feels like something where all 3 of my computers and iPhone are linked and I delete from one but it updates from the others.


Any ideas? solutions?

Mac mini, macOS 12.3
