Just want to chime in a say Thunderbird is a email client as it does not provide a email service like exmample @gmail.com is.

These KB articles helps explains what the Thunderbird email client is and how to use it. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-faq https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/getting-started-thunderbird

There is going to be a Thunderbird Pro where you can get email among other things. https://www.tb.pro/ https://blog.thunderbird.net/2025/11/thunderbird-pro-november-2025-update/


Btw tying in all Caps in the internet equivalent of shouting in the faces of people who are talking to you.

Thank you. It clarifies my lack of understanding. I know that "all caps" is like shouting. It was not my intention. I did so because the window, like this one said to wright all caps. Perhaps someone was trying to be funny >?< AI >?< I call it SI Thanks again Regards Alfonso
