I have Firefox, but want to get away from yahoo,aol, and Huffington Post. What does FIrefox have to replace them with?

I am fed up with the political one sidedness of Yahoo, AOL, and its list of Inquisitor, etc. Does Mozilla have a Webpage/Homepage to replace the above named sites?

Ok I will answer your question.

No! Mozilla does not, nor will it have.

Mozilla Firefox is a web browser for seeing webpages on the internet. This can be used to access various webmail accounts.

Mozilla Thunderbird is an email, newsgroup, news feed, and chat client. It allows you to add exisitng email accounts to read. write, manage emails etc. You can have several email addresses eg: ISP, gmail, web host etc and read them all together. So that you do not need to access each individual webmail account.

It is not an ISP (internet service provider) or web hosting company. Mozilla does not issue email addresses nor has webmail.

Helpful, yes, and no. I have done quite a bit of reading on the matter and one site notes that Outlook does not work well with Mozilla. I know there are a lot of websites out there (Yahoo, AOL, etc.), but what I wanted to know is if there is one that works well with Mozilla and maybe a hint that they start one if they do not presently have one.

Maybe there is no answer, but I am tired of the present ones. Thank you though.

You look at websites in a browser. Which sites you look at and which browser you use to do so are are entirely your own decision. I don't know why you think a browser should offer any kind of general current affairs news feed.

Mozilla's own sites are invariably to do with the development, installation and management of their software products, such as Firefox and Thunderbird. Any "news" as such will be about product releases and activities relating to Mozilla's business, such as personnel changes.

" I don't know why you think a browser should offer any kind of general current affairs news feed. "

And I don't know why you would post a wise assed answer to a question that I posted.

If you can't help the person that asks the question, try to keep the hell out of the site.

I retract my original question. It is obvious that I am not going to get a level answer here.

Probably because your statements so far are idiotic and make no sense.

OK, so I am not as savvy as you guys are. At my age, I am lucky to even find the on/off switch. But either way, at least I never talked down to someone that asked a question. Ever. Something you guys might try.

Well first off you are asking about Firefox, and Internet browser, in a Thunderbird email client forum. Several people tried to explain that to you. You we oblivious. Next you do not seem to understand that you can go to any site you want with any Internet browser and when you are told that you can, you think it is some kind of a smart ***ed answer and you get snippy with people donating their time to try and help you.

It seems as though "All your reading on the matter" has not cleared anything up for you.

Some several? Two? You are so full of yourself that it isn't funny. You try to make me stupid...and maybe I am. I asked a question and I have shown the above thread to three people who took the same snide remark as I did.

OK, enough. You so called volunteers are on a different plane than we are here, so please, stop the response. As I said, I withdraw the question, and any more remarks from you will be treated as I see it.

When you say Outlook, I presume you mean outlook.com webmail and not Outlook email client.

Thunderbird has nothing to do with websites. Perhaps you mean: Does Thunderbird work well with different email addresses which you currently access via webmail?

Thunderbird can be used with any email address if the server allows Pop and/or IMAP. Some people have difficulties if using Microsoft Exchange. This will depend upon whether the server has been configured to allow pop and imap.
