Chosen solution

I'm a bit confused. Link to Mozilla? As far as I know Mozilla doesn't run a mailserver. Thunderbird is a client that can connect to your mail-server account. (Yahoo) You can get free email-accounts from lot of places (don't make a new at gmail thou)

If you open account settings and the button at the bottom "account actions" you can select "add mail account" and "get a new account" this will (hopfully) connect you to a mail-server provider
