.. index:: Thunderbird .. _settings-clientconfig-thunderbird: Mozilla Thunderbird ------------------- .. image:: _static/thunderbird-logo.png :align: right Unfortunately, Mozilla Thunderbird can only handle email on its own. In order for it to also deal with your contacts, appointments and tasks, third party extensions are required. Therefore, you need to set up all of those separately. We show you how to do that below. E-Mail Setup ^^^^^^^^^^^^ When you start Thunderbird for the first time, it will ask you to create an account. Please say that you want to use an existing email address. The following dialog should appear where you can enter your account credentials. Click *Continue* and Thunderbird will attempt to find the correct settings automatically. .. container:: screenshots .. fancyfigure:: _static/thunderbird-autoconfig.png :group: thunderbird :height: 200 :alt: Thunderbird Account Setup Dialog .. fancyrender:: :font: verdana :size: 11 |useremail| @125,82 |imap_host| @148,225 |smtp_host| @148,249 |useremail| @112,272 If the automatic configuration detection fails, enter the credentials for incoming and outgoing servers as depicted below: .. container:: screenshots .. fancyfigure:: _static/thunderbird-manual.png :group: thunderbird :height: 200 :alt: Thunderbird Manual Account Setup .. fancyrender:: :font: verdana :size: 11 |useremail| @125,82 |imap_host| @186,241 |imap_port| @374,241 |imap_ssl| @442,242 |smtp_host| @186,269 |smtp_port| @374,269 |smtp_ssl| @442,270 |useremail| @186,298 |useremail| @569,298 Click *Done* to re-test the configuration and finish the setup. .. only:: dav .. index:: Lightning .. _settings-clientconfig-thunderbird-lightning: Calendar Setup ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In order to use calendars with Thunderbird, you need to first install the `Lightning Add-on `_, if you do not have it already.

Double-click to set the value to true Then restart Thunderbird, add the second account and enjoy the full power of |service_name|! .. container:: screenshots .. fancyfigure:: _static/thunderbird-multirealm.png :group: thunderbirdmulti :width: 240 :alt: Thunderbird Lightning Multiple Accounts Trick
