1. I have downloaded Thunderbird desktop client for Mac. I wanted to use Thunderbird as a web client, but I cannot get this done. Could anyone help me out? 2. When using a webclient is possible, do I have to set it up from zero or can I get the mailaddresses and settings and addons from my desktop client straight in my webclient? 3. I also couldn't get my icloud mailaddress to run in Thunderbird. I created an app specific pasword and used this + followed multiple tips from forums, but can't get it to work. 4. Can anyone explain the use of addons in Thunderbird? How does this work? I accessed the add-ons through the add-ons page and then downloaded some. Do they automatically work when I open my Thunderbird desktop client (and also on my web client when I get it to work)?

There is no web version of Thunderbird, and there won't be.
