Set Up Your Email in Thunderbird

All Help Articles

Start with your full SpeechTherapy.com email address and mailbox password. Our domain has automatic setup information configured, so a compatible app can fill in the server settings for you. If setup completes, you can skip the manual settings below. Some apps or versions still ask you to enter them.

  1. Open Thunderbird’s account menu and choose Add Account > Email. Older versions may show New Account > Existing Email.
  2. Enter your name and full SpeechTherapy.com email address. Follow the prompts for your mailbox password.
  3. Continue so Thunderbird can find the settings. Choose IMAP when a protocol choice appears.
  4. If the settings are missing or incorrect, choose manual configuration and use the values below.
  5. Complete the account setup.

Outgoing SMTP authentication is required. If your app asks for an authentication method, use Normal password or Password over the secure connection. An alternative outgoing configuration is port 587 with STARTTLS; keep the port and security type paired correctly.

Use Normal password authentication for both servers, with SSL/TLS enabled. If Thunderbird offers a different provider’s sign-in screen, go back and check the account type and server names.

You can manage your default account through Thunderbird’s Account Settings. Check the From address on a new message and on replies, particularly when several accounts are present.

After setup, send a short message to another address you can check and reply to it. Confirm that the From address is your SpeechTherapy.com address. Choose your default sending address if your app supports that setting.

If you have not set a mailbox password yet, set it through your Dashboard. For connection errors, compare the server settings or open a support ticket. Do not turn off encryption or accept a certificate warning to complete setup.
