Account Hub for Thunderbird Desktop
The Account Hub is our new streamlined, unified, and modern experience for adding email accounts, address books, and calendars.
NOTES
- Prior to Thunderbird 150, the legacy Account Setup was the default. For versions older than 150, please refer to these articles: Automatic Account Configuration and Manual Account Configuration.
- For simplicity, we will use the term OAuth instead of OAuth 2 or OAuth 2.0. Thunderbird’s current implementation of OAuth is based on OAuth 2.0, the most common version of OAuth.
- Prior to Thunderbird 153, the OAuth dialogues are presented in a tab inside Thunderbird. Versions 153 and higher display the OAuth dialogues externally in your system’s default web browser (Firefox, Chrome, etc.) instead. We will refer to versions 152 and lower as older versions in this article.
Automatic email account setup
- Start: When you first run Thunderbird after installing it, the Account Hub will open into the email setup flow. After the first run, you can start the email setup flow by clicking the Thunderbird app menu > ( in older versions) > .
- Name and Email address: Fill in your Full name and Email address and click . For example,
nemo@thundermail.com: - Configuration lookup: Thunderbird will look in its configuration database for email settings based on your email address - most email providers are in our mail provider database. If they aren’t, you can manually configure your settings. Here are the settings that Thunderbird automatically finds for Thundermail (other providers that use OAuth like Gmail and Microsoft email are very similar to Thundermail):
- Confirm settings: The default settings are suitable for most folks, so click to finish the setup. For email providers that use OAuth (like Thundermail), a branded tab will be provided by the provider. This OAuth dialog will pop up in the system browser (for older versions, this opens a tab in Thunderbird). In our example below, Thundermail uses OAuth, so the tab is branded with Thundermail colours and graphics:
- Enter the password in your email provider’s branded system browser tab: In this step, you will enter your password and then click . Some providers may require you to do multi-factor authentication during this step. When done, you will receive a notification that your account has been connected to Thunderbird and that you can close the system browser tab:
- Add other services like Address Books and Calendars: Back in Thunderbird, if the email provider supports other services, you are prompted to add them. For most people, clicking to add the default other services is sensible:
- Done! At this stage, your email account and other connected services are set up. You can click to end or click to add another email account:
- Need help? If your email provider uses OAuth, please follow our OAuth Troubleshooting Checklist first. If you are still stuck, please ask a support question in our community support forum.
