<seo title="How to set up email in Thunderbird" metakeywords="set up email for thunderbird,set up e-mail,configure mail,mail application,mail client,email settings" metadescription="How to set up email in Thunderbird" /> <br> <div align=justify>You can always use your cPanel mailboxes to send and receive email messages. But you also can view your email with an email client. To configure mail in Thunderbird mail application, use the settings outlined below. To set up an e-mail account, open the '''Tools''' menu and choose '''Account Settings'''. Press '''Add Account'''. The Account Wizard should open: '''1'''.Choose Email account and click '''Next'''. '''2'''. Enter your name and e-mail address. Click '''Next'''. '''3'''. Select the type of your incoming server. This is usually POP. Enter your server address * If your incoming server is POP, you may check Use Global Inbox. If you do not check this option, your mail account will have its own folder directory, including its own Inbox, Trash, Draft, etc. Many people with multiple POP mail account prefer to use Global Inbox, where all POP mail is stored and managed in one folder directory. * If this is your first account setup, you need to enter your outgoing server in email settings. Otherwise, you need to set up additional outgoing servers separately. '''4'''. Click '''Next'''. '''5'''. Enter your username for receiving mail. This is usually your mail account name or your e-mail address (e.g. info@example.com). You may also need to enter your username for sending mail (usually the same as the username for receiving mail). '''6'''. Click '''Next'''. '''7'''. Enter the account name (display name in Thunderbird). Press Next. '''8'''. The Wizard should show you a summary of your account information. You may also have an option to immediately download mail. '''Note: if you are setting up your first mail account from the wizard that opens on start up (rather than from the Account Settings dialog), Thunderbird automatically downloads messages regardless of this option. This is because Thunderbird checks for new messages on startup by default'''. '''9'''. Review the summary and click '''Finish''' to complete the process. Also make sure you use the proper port values: * IMAP without SSL - 143 * IMAP with SSL - 993 * POP without SSL - 110 * POP with SSL - 995 * SMTP without SSL - one of the following: 25, 80, 3535 * SMTP with SSL - 465 If your email settings are correct then you should be able to receive/send emails using Thunderbird mail application. In case you get any error, re-check your email settings to make sure you have set up e-mail properly.
