Configuring Thunderbird

In our examples we consider the following information:

Account name: test
Mailbox: test@alwaysdata.net

They must be replaced by your personal login information:

Server	Service	Information
Incoming	IMAP	Hostname	imap-[account].alwaysdata.net
		Port	993
		Connection security	Will be automatically set up
		Authentication method	Normal password
		Username	Your email address - for example contact@example.com
		Password	The password of your email address
	POP3	Host	pop-[account].alwaysdata.net
		Port	995
		Connection security	Will be automatically set up
		Authentication method	Normal password
		Username	Your email address - for example contact@example.com
		Password	The password of your email address
Outgoing	SMTP	Host	smtp-[account].alwaysdata.net
		Port	465
		Connection security	Will be automatically set up
		Authentication method	Normal password
		Username	Your email address - for example contact@example.com

[account] must be replaced by the name of your account and contact@example.com by your email address. They are defined in the Emails > Addresses menu of our administration interface.

Go to Settings > Configure an account: E-mail.

To change it once created, go to Accounts > See settings for this account or go to the Edit > Account settings menu bar:

For incoming mail, go to Server settings.
Thunderbird: incoming server settings
For outgoing mail, go to outgoing SMTP server.
