- In the Email address box, enter your entire email address (e.g., myname@mydomain.com).
- In the Password box, enter the password for your email account.
- Click the Continue button.
- Thunderbird will attempt to automatically detect account settings, click the Stop button.

Note: If you have already configured an outgoing server for another account, the previously established Outgoing will be displayed. This can be changed after setup by going to Tools / Account Settings / Outgoing Server (SMTP).
- Click the POP / IMAP drop-down menu and select IMAP.
- Enter the incoming port number 993, and select SSL/TLS in the security drop-down menu.
- Enter the outgoing / SMTP port number 465, and select SSL/TLS in the security drop-down menu.
