Installing Thunderbird on a Windows computer
I have today made a Credit Card donation to Mozilla but simply cannot see how to download Thunderbird. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Tony Baker.

Hey Tony,
First off, Thank you for supporting Thunderbird with your donation. That contribution helps keep Thunderbird free and open source for everyone. Secondly, to clarify: Thunderbird is always free to download and use - even without a donation :)
You can get Thunderbird from the official site here: www.thunderbird.net https://www.thunderbird.net
1. Visit the site https://www.thunderbird.net
2. Click the large Download button
Once it downloads, Open the downloaded file (check your computer's download folder if you cannot find it.) and then follow the installation steps for Thunderbird that pop up on your computer's monitor. You can trust the file at the link above; it's the official TB page.
PS: Please note that Thunderbird works with your existing email accounts. So, when you install it and first launch it, the application is going to ask you for your email address and password (for that account). I am telling you this so that 1: you know in advance & 2: So that you can create an email address on outlook or gmail or yahoo before you are asked this question.
PSS: Thank you, Thank you again! Your donation is appreciated and helps ensure Thunderbird continues to improve!
