To create or edit an email account in Mozilla Thunderbird, start by selecting "Account Settings" in the Tools menu. In the window that pops up, click "Account Actions" and then "Add Mail Account...".
In the window that pops up, enter your name, email address and password.
Thunderbird may try to guess the settings, but it will not have the correct username, so it will fail. Click the Manual Setup... button to continue.
Find the your new account in the list on the left side of the Account Settings window. Click the Server Settings item.
Leave the port at the default value for POP or IMAP
Be sure to enter your full email address in the User Name field.
Select "None" for "Connection Security".
Check the box for "Leave messages on server" and "For at most 14 days".
Uncheck the box for Until I deleted them.
Back on the left size, click the Outgoing Server (SMTP) item. Then select the new SMTP server ( smpt.mywebsite.net ) and click the Edit... button.
On the SMTP Server window that pops up, set the following values:
Change the port to 825. Often, it will work with the default value of 25, but since some ISPs block port 25, Click Logic recommends port 825.
Set ConnectioN security to None
Set your username to your full email address
click OK
That's it. Click OK on the Manage Accounts screen. If thunderbird is unable to send or receive email, please double check the settings and then contact Click Logic if you would like assistance.
