I think there is some confusion. Thunderbird is an e-mail client, it is used to access your existing e-mail account. It doesn't require Firefox to function, it doesn't even require a browser.

Firefox is a web browser, and you can use it to access your email if it has a webmail interface (like www.gmail.com). However, Firefox doesn't require thunderbird to operate.

Neither application needs the other, they don't even interface unless you are trying to send an email or open a link.

Can you explain what you are trying to do again?

Thanks Tyler, I just wanted a link/bookmark/tag to open Thunderbird when I'm on the Firefox homepage, if that was possible.

Hi, you should look and post over here for help, :

• https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/thunderbird
• https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/

Note : this forum is for Firefox for Desktop & notepad/books

You can simply pin the Thunderbird icon to your taskbar. Having a link in Firefox isn't possible, nor necessary

Thank you.
