- Enter the following details:
- Full name: the name you want to assign to the account.
- Email address: the email address you are configuring.
- Password: the password for the email account.
Click Continue.
3. Server configuration
- Thunderbird will process the information and display the incoming and outgoing server configuration.
- Next, click Configure manually.
4. Modify the settings manually
- In the window that appears, change the SSL/TLS section if it is not assigned by default (the incoming and outgoing ports will update automatically).
- Change the username to the full email address name (for both the incoming and outgoing server)
- Click Re-test.
5. Finish the configuration
- The message "The following configuration was found by probing the given server" will appear. To finish, click Done.
