In order to set up an email account in Thunderbird you must know the provider's outgoing and incoming server settings.
Add a new account in Thunderbird, go to <Account Settings | Add Account button | Mail account>.
Thunderbird will make an educated guess at the correct settings, but with lesser-known providers it may get them wrong, so it's best to come forearmed with the correct settings, which can be obtained from the provider. You can also note them from the old computer if you still have access to it.
The general info needed to manually set up a Thunderbird account:
- Whether it's an IMAP or POP3 account
Incoming Server Type: IMAP or POP3 Incoming Server Name: Port: User Name: <usually your email address> Connection Security: SSL/TLS, STARTTLS, or other Authentication method: Normal password, OAuth2, or other
SMTP Server Name: SMTP Port: Connection Security: SSL/TLS, STARTTLS, or other Authentication method: Normal password, OAuth2, or other User Name: <usually your email address>
