You can also configure an email account via the Accounts menu. We will show you both ways by setting up two email accounts. For the wizard set-up we will use the email address info example.
On the first screen you need to enter three bits of information:. You almost certainly want to keep the Remember password checkbox ticked unless you like the idea of entering your email password every time Thunderbirds connects to the mail server. After you click on Continue Thunderbird will try to find the configuration settings for the domain.
Unfortunately, it will come up with the wrong results. You therefore need to manually enter the settings, which you can by clicking on the Manual config button.
After clicking the Manual config button you can manually enter the incoming and outgoing server names and the username. The server hostname should be the hostname of the server, which in our case is strawberry. If you are not sure what hostname you should use, you can find this information via the Connect Devices option in cPanel.
If you are using IMAP then the port number should be Use port instead if you want to use POP3. You can leave the authentication setting set to Autodetect. On the last line you need to enter the username you use to connect to the mail server. By default, Thunderbird will use the username without the domain part i. You need to make sure that the username is your full email address.
When you have entered the settings you can click the Re-test button. Thunderbird will check if the settings work, and if so you can next hit the Done button. At the bottom of the left-hand pane you can click on Account Actions and then select Add Mail Account. You should now see the account set-up wizard again. After adding the second email account both accounts will show in your Thunderbird.
In the below screenshot you can see the two email accounts we configured. We have selected the inbox for info example. There is a third folder in the left-hand pane as well: Local Folders. This is a special folder used for archiving emails.
Any emails stored under Local Folders are no longer on the server, but they are still available locally, via Thunderbird.
You can view emails in the folder as per usual, but the emails are only accessible in Thunderbird and not on, say, a mail app on a smartphone. By default Thunderbird stores emails you archive in a folder named Archives. That folder lives in your inbox, which defeats the purpose of archiving emails if you want to reduce the amount space used by your email account, as the emails will still be stored on the server.
For instance, as you can see in the above screenshot, the single email we archived is stored in a subfolder named Many people prefer a more custom way of organising archived emails. Doing so is fairly straight forward: you create custom folders under Local Folders. In the below screenshot I have created a folder for the info and nospam mailboxes under Local Folders. Each folder has a number of subfolders. For instance, the Info folder has two subfolders: Chess and Work. You can create custom folders by simply right-clicking on Local Folders and selecting New Folder.
The advantage of this approach is that you can archive emails to specific folders. All work-related emails can go to the Work folder, while chess-related emails are kept in the Chess folder. There is a downside to this approach though: you will need to manually archive your emails. Luckily, that is straight forward enough:.
