Greetings to you, dear visitor to the blog "Penserman".
This topic will be of interest to those readers who have already got themselves an e-mail, and possibly more than one. Who did not have time to do this, hurry to fill this gap, having familiarized yourself with the topic: "", there, in my opinion, everything is stated in great detail and intelligibly.
Having got myself email address do not put off in long box and installation mail program, For example, free Mazily Thunderbird. In this topic, I will try to write everything intelligibly and clearly about it.
So why do many PC users prefer to work with their mail using special programs... To answer this question, it is enough to list some of the advantages they possess.
Advantages of email programs
- to check mail, you do not need to open any pages in the browser, just run the program and it will download all the mail to your computer;
- there is no intrusive advertising and another superfluous one, which sometimes interferes with concentration;
- it can check mail on any number of different mailboxes;
- mail can be sorted by subject by creating required folders in unlimited quantities;
- letters are opened instantly, as they are already on your hard disk in your computer, it is especially pleasant when photographs are attached to the letter.
- letters can be written without connecting to the Internet, and as soon as you connect they will be sent immediately;
- significantly saves traffic when viewing and reading mail, and this is not an unimportant factor if you do not have unlimited traffic;
The main mail programs and advantages of Mazila
Leading among them is Outlook Express, The bat, Mozilla Thunderbird, PegasusMail, Foxmail. We will not analyze each of them in detail, we will limit ourselves only to brief characteristics:
Outlook Express- one of the best, but practically no protection.
The bat- considered the best today, but paid.
PegasusMail- free, lightweight, but not Russified, there is no password to enter own box.
Foxmai is free, very lightweight, simple, enough functions, but sometimes difficulties with encoding arise.
Mozilla Thunderbird benefits:
- protection against viruses at the proper level, unless of course you open attachments from unknown senders;
- very similar to Outlook, so it will be easy for many to navigate;
- easily customizable and there is nothing superfluous;
- free;
- works correctly with Russian encodings;
- there is a spell checker;
The conclusion suggests itself: of all the above, this is the most acceptable option, especially since it can be used as Outlook alternatives Express.
Download and install Mazila Thunderbird
Let's now proceed directly to the installation of this mail client - this is also the name of all these programs . So, first, download it from the official site - click on the next word: -> HERE. There we click on the large green rectangle with the logo in the form of a bird with an envelope and the inscription "" Thunderbird Free Download "".
Our download manager starts working, if you haven't installed it yet, hurry up to read the topic: "". With or without it, our Mazila will download anyway. Next step this is installation. Run the downloaded file and see the following window:
If this program is installed on your computer for the first time, then, after installation, the "Import Wizard" may be automatically launched. I think you have nothing to import yet, so do what is highlighted in the picture:
Just in case, I will show you another window that appeared when I first installed this program for myself (though it was a very long time ago), perhaps it is no longer shown, by at least when preparing this material, I did not have it. If it is "drawn", then do what is shown in the picture below:
Create an account and set the mail storage location
In the next step, we will get into the window of our program. I will not show the entire window, but only the part that we need. In the lower picture, select: "OK" "
In the next picture, what is highlighted in red:
In the next window, fill in all the fields shown and click "Continue", but note that the email address must be written in full, that is, in in this case not only ivanov.piotr, but @ inbox.ru, too.
Here is the final installation window. If you choose "IMAP" "( remote access to folders), that is, all mail will be stored on the server, and only control - dispatch, receiving, deleting, etc., then we press "Finish" "and we can" "sleep well" ":
Configuring mail storage on your computer
If you want to store mail on your computer, then we put an end to "" POP3 "", and then it makes sense to immediately correct in the parameters of the account entries - parameters server. But first, let's add on top panel our mail client "Menu Bar" ". This must be done in any case to make it more convenient with the program:
- Click with the left mouse button on the stripes in the upper right corner - a list will drop out.
- Select (do not press) with the cursor "Settings" - another list drops out.
- Select "Menu Bar" "and left-click on it to check the box.
Let's see how this is done in the lower picture:
Now on the "Menu Bar" that appears at the top:
- Select "Tools", left-click, a list will drop out.
- Click on "Account Settings".
The picture below shows everything:
After the above manipulations, the following window will open to us, where we must find the line "" Server parameters "" under our account. We click on it in order to show us these parameters on the right, but there it is already necessary to determine the values highlighted by the red frame.
I think it makes sense to uncheck the box "No more than 14 days" "and regularly delete unnecessary letters yourself. You never know what you may need to find later. Well, at the same time, look at the rest of the parameters, maybe you want to change something.
Add mailboxes
If you need to add more accounts, then do what is shown in the lower picture either by the "red option" or by the "green" option, after which you will see the "Mail account setup" window and then repeat the same procedure as with the first box.
I hope you guessed that the top label in the green rectangle will appear after clicking on "" [email protected]"", which is not visible in the picture because of the drop-down list.
I will not describe in detail how to check mail, send, delete and other various simple things that, I think, you can figure out using the "scientific poke" method. I will dwell only on how to create a message (letter) and attach some file to it (a photo, for example).
Attaching files to sent emails
So, on the toolbar of our Mazila, click on "Create". We look below in the picture part of this window:
It turns out the following window - create messages (I also showed it not all, but only the part we need), here we click on the inscription "" Attach "" next to the image of the paper clip:
At the next stage, we need to specify the path to this file, in other words, find this, for example, a photo on our computer using the following window that opens - do what is shown in the picture below:
In the picture below, the final stage of our actions, we make sure that the file is attached, we check if we wrote everything correctly and we can click "Send":
Notification of received messages
Mazil Thunderbird also has such a nice thing as notification of received messages, where in top line indicates to which mailbox the letter came and at the bottom from whom. It is displayed as a pop-up window in the lower right corner and is accompanied by a short beep:
You could, of course, still write about creating backups and the recovery options that you can do mail program Mazila Thunderbird, but this, I think, needs to be devoted to a separate topic. That's all.
Good luck to you! See you soon on the pages of the Penserman blog!
How do you like to view your email better? Many people out of habit use a web browser, not wondering if they need an alternative, but some remain faithful to the good old mailers, because they know a lot about them.
– free app to work with emails and newsgroups from the creator web Firefox browser... According to the developers, it concentrated in itself best qualities different mail clients, including "classics of the genre" Microsoft Outlook and The Bat. I propose to get to know him better in order to understand whether it is worth attention or just one of many.
Why an email client is better than a browser
Several reasons to install for working with mail a separate program or use it in conjunction with the browser:
- Access to correspondence in the client program does not depend on the stability of the Internet connection.
- Using the program reduces the consumption of web traffic, since it downloads only emails, and the browser downloads page design elements and advertisements.
- The application interface can be configured according to your needs. Web services have very limited functionality.
- The programs have better developed functions for searching and filtering messages.
- Client programs contain more useful tools than any web service.
What is the strength and weakness of Mozilla Thunderbird
Strengths
- Built-in wizard for setting up accounts. The user can afford not to know what SSL, TLS, SMTP, IMAP, POP3 are and how to configure them correctly - the program will do it for him. It is enough to remember your email address and your mailbox password.
- Opening folders and emails in tabs is like opening web pages in a browser. This means you don't have to close everything else to work with one message.
- Unlimited number of connected mailboxes.
- Convenient sorting of letters: for correspondence of different accounts, you can use both general and individual directories. And also - configure the display of the same letters in different folders(although physically they will be in one).
- Reminder function to attach an attachment to the letter if you mentioned it in the message.
- Support for skins and extensions that are installed without leaving the application.
- Russian-language interface.
- Built-in antispam filter, calendar and task scheduler.
- Phishing protection - a warning when you go to sites whose address is different from the one specified in the letter.
- Faster filtering: you just started typing a word in search bar and the application is already producing results.
And what users don't like too much
- Not always correct display headers of letters.
- Tabs cannot be dragged back and forth with the mouse.
- The attachment reminder function does not always work (just the word "attachment" is taken into account only in the nominative case).
First launch and setup
Installing Mozilla Thunderbird is nothing special. When you turn it on for the first time (immediately after installation), the account setup wizard starts and offers a choice of:
- Connect existing.
- Put it off for later.
Let's consider its work on the example of connecting an existing account, because you probably already have at least one.
- In the window " Welcome to Thunderbird"Check" Skip(creating a new account) and use my existing mail».
- Enter address and password mailbox... Click " Continue».
- After entering, click " Ready».
- If desired, change the box parameters: click " Manual tincture"And indicate required servers, ports, protocols, authentication methods and the rest as shown below. If you do not know the purpose of these parameters, leave everything as it is.
This completes the work of the wizard, and you will find yourself in the main window of the program. By the way, it is very similar to the Firefox browser window. On the left is the folder pane. In the frame below - context menu, click-open on this panel. At the very top is the tab bar (like in a browser). Under him - function buttons, the purpose of most of which, I think, is clear. In the main part of the window there is a menu quick call main functions.
Two framed icons on the right open the Calendar and Task Scheduler:
The main thing is hidden behind the button in the form of three stripes. Mozilla menu Thunderbird. With the bulk of the tools collected here, I think it is easy to understand without explanation. Among other things, it contains a button to go to the section for installing add-ons. Here we should get to know him better.
Those who have installed plugins and extensions in the browser at least once will not have to explain how to install them in Thunderbird for a long time: it is done in the same way as in Mozilla Firefox... By default, the program has one single extension - Lightning (Calendar). If you want to install anything else, click " Get add-ons", Choose what you like and click" Add to Thunderbird».
And below I showed how the function “ Quick filter ". As soon as I started to enter the word "coupon", as soon as 3 messages were found, where this word is mentioned in the title of the topic.
General impression of the program
It turned out to be convenient and easy to use the Mozilla Thunderbird mail client. It took only a few minutes to download incoming emails. Create and send a new message (button " Create") Also passed without incident, however, address book I had to import from M $ Outlook manually, as the program did not want to do it itself. And that was the only thing that prevented me from starting to work right away. In general, the application takes almost no time to master, which is good news.
In my immodest opinion, the product meets the expectations of users - both experienced and beginners, and also takes far from last place among competitors. Try it, I hope you like it too.

Meet Mozilla Thunderbird - A Convenient Free Email Client updated: May 4, 2016 by the author: Johnny mnemonic
The structure of which includes a functional email client is a solution for business people in the corporate sector, the Mozilla Thunderbird mailer is perhaps the most perfect option comfortable work With by e-mail for ordinary users. For regular users, but actively using email in Everyday life... Convenient, minimalistic in terms of consumption system resources, With automatic tuning email accounts, flexible and customizable - Mozilla Thunderbird brings true comfort to working with multiple email accounts.
Mozilla Thunderbird is a functional mailer that supports electronic IMAP mail and POP and HTML, as well as RSS news feeds, newsgroups and chats (personal correspondence) of IRC, Twitter, Facebook, Google talk... As for the latter functionality, alas, these are not the most popular communication services for Runet, for example, popular social networks - VKontakte and Odnoklassniki - are not. Nevertheless, the idea itself is good - to implement personal correspondence with social networks and various services for people to communicate.
Among the advantages of Mozilla Thunderbird are the efficiency of the program, security when working with e-mail, a simple interface with a clear and understandable organization. Mozilla Thunderbird, like the browser, is absolutely free cross-platform software... The mail client can be downloaded from its official website.
Adding a mail account
The first thing we see after starting Mozilla Thunderbird is the mailer window with options for adding email accounts and other components supported by the program. Click "Email" to add your mailbox to the software client.
If this is your first time adding to the desktop mailer account email, be sure to check if it is active in your account settings mail service access to mail via IMAP and POP protocols.
And in the Mozilla Thunderbird mailer, we will see a welcome window for setting up an email account. Moreover, if someone does not yet have an email account or needs a multi-account, Mozilla Thunderbird here also offers quick registration account on the mail services with which the program cooperates - on gandi.net and on hover.com. These are English-language mail services, while they are far from the most popular on the Internet, therefore, of course, we will refuse the offer of Mozilla Thunderbird. In our case, however, probably as in most others, there is a mailbox, so feel free to click "Skip this and use my existing mail."
Mozilla Thunderbird will automatically select optimal settings connections that are available in the program database for most popular mail servers. And in the next window, what remains to be done is to select the protocol - IMAP or POP. The first protocol - IMAP - allows you to work with e-mail without downloading it to the local space of a computer device. This is a more popular type of interaction between mail servers and client E-Mail Applications, in which the user can have access to mail data both from the mailer and on the website of the mail service at any point the globe where there is internet. The POP protocol completely removes all mail from mail server and transfers it locally to your computer. It can be used in rare cases when it is undesirable to leave mail on the server, at the same time in some secluded place on the computer or on removable media emails should be kept.
We select the protocol (in most cases it will be, of course, IMAP) and click "Finish".
If the mailbox data was entered correctly, we will see how Mozilla Thunderbird is promptly replenished with incoming e-mail messages. In a couple of minutes, all letters from the server will be downloaded, and they will be displayed in the mailer window.
Interface
Do not be intimidated by the poor, ascetic interface of the mailer, with the help of add-ons (extensions), like Mozilla browser Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird can also be dressed up in beautiful cover from the themes presented in the add-on store. We press the mailer menu and select "Add-ons".
In the first tab "Get add-ons" select "Selected topics" and click on the link "Show all".
Then select the one you like in the catalog of the presented covers and press the "Add" button to apply it.
And to change appearance the mailer cardinally, you can apply the so-called full topics designs that completely transform the program interface into a different style - with a different background color, with different fonts, with different icons. To get into their catalog, in the "Get add-ons" tab, select "Other ways to customize" and click on the link "Show all full topics".
We fall into the catalog of complete topics and choose the one that interests you.
So, fans of dark tones can give Mozilla Thunderbird a techno style in black.
Fans of positive colors can choose cute themes in warm colors.
In order not to be distracted by the coloring of the program interface, you can choose neutral themes with readable fonts.
Sorting
Mozilla Thunderbird is the perfect mailer for those who like to collect various junk in their mailbox for years. The display of the table of letters can be built by subject, sender, date of receipt. In addition, the mailer is equipped with an internal search and filters, with the help of which letters can be displayed only unread, only with tags, only with attachments, etc.
Anti-spam and protection
Moreover, the anti-spam filter can be configured separately for each email account.
And also allow the antivirus installed on the system to quarantine suspicious messages.
Sound setting
If you are the leader of E-Mail subscriptions, often receive mail, in the "Basic" section of the mailer settings, you can turn off the sound notification so that it does not annoy you. Or you can, on the contrary, as sound alert set your favorite ringtone (".wav" format) or any other sound from the existing selection in Windows (C: \ Windows \ Media), changing the pre-installed system sound.
As you can see, Mozilla Thunderbird functionality it is enough to work comfortably with incoming mail. What about outgoing mail?
Sending letters
To send an email, click on the big, noticeable "Create" button at the top. An additional window for creating and sending a message will appear. Here, from the drop-down list, we can select one or another e-mail account from which the letter will be sent.
Mozilla Thunderbird is equipped with an internal spell checker - this is definitely a huge plus for the program. As for the formatting capabilities of the sent text, the brainchild of Mozilla, of course, is far from the full functionality built into Microsoft Outlook 2013 text editor Word, however, basic capabilities for formatting text are present.
In order not to write the same message to many recipients, you can use Mozilla Thunderbird templates. Once we compose a universal letter and save it in the mailer as a template.
What will need to be done in the future is to open it in the templates folder, if necessary, enter certain exact data, enter the recipient and, in fact, press the send button.
Export and import settings
It's a pity that Mozilla Thunderbird is not equipped cloud sync data, as is the case with most browsers. And, alas, there is no full-fledged function of import / export of settings in the mailer either. There is only the ability to import settings from other mail clients.
But it's not a problem. Migrating Mozilla Thunderbird settings can be done manually by copying the configured files to a non-system disk or transferring them to cloud storage... And then these files will need to be placed in the Mozilla Thunderbird settings folder after installing the program on a new reinstalled system or on a new device.
Before reinstalling your system or before using Mozilla Thunderbird on another computer device, go to the mailer settings directory:
Usually, AppData folder is hidden and is not visible in Explorer by default. To see it and its contents, you need to set the display settings for hidden elements in Windows Explorer.
The contents of the "Thunderbird" folder are the mailer settings files. We copy this folder with all its contents and place it on a non-system disk or send it to a cloud storage on the Internet.
But new system or install the Mozilla Thunderbird program on a new computer, launch it and immediately close it without connecting email accounts. We follow the same path as before - we expose the display of hidden elements Windows explorer and go to the mailer settings folder:
C: \ Users \ Username \ AppData \ Roaming \ Thunderbird
Open the "Thunderbird" folder with the old mailer settings in another explorer window and drag all its contents into new folder"Thunderbird". The files in the destination folder are naturally replaceable.
Google Chrome or its clone on Chromium base type or. Therefore, collect all your mailboxes into a single lightweight mail client, which is Mozilla Thunderbird, so as not to miss important letter- a productive move. At the same time, no matter what mail service an email is sent from, a functional mailer like Mozilla Thunderbird will offer its own tools for creating it, and you will not need to delve into the features of the web interface of each individual account.

How to set up mozilla thunderbird mail
Mozilla Thunderbird is a useful assistant when working with large quantity emails and newsletters. When registering an account, the user independently chooses where the received letters and the documents attached to them will be stored: on his personal personal computer or on an existing Internet resource.If you prefer to leave the delivered mail on your hard drive, then you will have to set a specific size of the folder into which they will be downloaded. With this method of storing information, the user has constant access to all already received letters and files, even if the computer temporarily does not have an Internet connection - which is more than convenient. The disadvantage in this case may be a possible failure of the hard disk, so we advise you to do backup archive letters and export settings. Exporting settings to mozilla thunderbird allows you to simplify new installation and further adjustment of the parameters of the mail client to those made earlier.
The program also takes care of protecting all user correspondence sent through unprotected communication channels. The client uses the following modern algorithms encryption, like SSL / TLS, while working with mail is carried out using POP, IMAP and others. For example, not so long ago the Yandex mail service sent out notifications to its users to update their mail programs. This affected many email clients, but not Thunderbird, because his security has always been at a high level.
It is also easy to create a signature in mozilla thunderbird. To do this, you can use the built-in toolkit and the PGP public key encryption system. All these features are built into the program, so you don't have to install any add-ons.
It should be noted that a lot of attention has also been paid to working with spam. This kind of correspondence is stored in separate folder so that the user can independently decide what to do with this or that advertising letter.
As we noted earlier, the email client allows you to work with several electronic boxes... The only thing that needs to be done is to add each of them in turn to the program. After these manipulations, the mailer will constantly check mail (the interval for checking letters can be configured) and display appropriate notifications.
For more successful work with new letters, the mail client uses special system filters, which at correct setting will reduce the time spent on checking such emails.
A special advantage free Mozilla Thunderbird in front of its competitors (including paid ones), you can call the available functionality for exchange instant messaging via the Internet (for example, using Google Hangout chat or other similar systems). In addition, the program works on all popular platforms: Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, so we advise you to download this wonderful application for free.
Mozilla Thunderbird (Russian "Mozilla Thunderbird") is a program for working with e-mail. It was created with the aim of eliminating the need for a client to use an e-mail inbox using a browser. In order to fully use mail in Thunderbird, the user needs to configure it.
Add a new mailbox automatically
At the first running Mozilla Thunderbird program herself suggests adding a new account. In this case, you can create a new mailbox or enter the data of an existing one. In the first case, she offers to create an email address. mail with a service cost of $ 15-20 per year or use one of the many free servers... A link to their list is displayed in the same window.
In the second case, when you click on the "Use my existing mail" button, a window will open for entering your login, password and initials. The latter are displayed next to the subject of the letter at the recipient.
When you enter your username and password when setting up mail, Mozilla Thunderbird will automatically download everything from the developer's server. required parameters to send and receive letters. For this feature to work, it requires a network connection.
Manual configuration of a new mailbox
If the Internet connection is temporarily unavailable or the parameters of the mail server used are not available in the developer's databases, then you can use its “manual” option to configure Mozilla Thunderbird.
To do this, open the "Account Settings" dialog box. This can be done in 2 ways:
In the new window at the bottom left, you need to click on the "Actions for the account" button and select "Add account" in the drop-down menu. mail recording ".
In the window for adding an email address. e-mail, enter the required data. After adding them and clicking the "OK" button. Then the server settings and the "Configure manually" button will appear at the bottom. After activating it, LMB will open changeable parameters: server address, port, protocol (for incoming letters), encryption and verification methods.
To configure for a specific mail server, you need to change all 5 parameters. The table below shows their values for popular mail services.
| Name of the mail service | POP server address | IMAP server address | SMTP server address | Encryption |
|||
| Google.com ( [email protected]) | SSL / TSL or START / TLS |
||||||
| Yandex ( [email protected]/ ua / kz) | |||||||
| Mail.ru ( [email protected]/bk.ru/list.ru/inbox.ru) | |||||||
| Rambler ( [email protected]) | |||||||
| Microsoft Mail :( [email protected]/live.ru/outlook.com) | pop-mail.outlook.com | imap-mail.outlook.com | smtp-mail.outlook.com |
After this configuration, Mozilla Thunderbird will be able to send and download emails.
POP3 and IMAP protocols: what is the difference and how to change the settings
They differ among themselves in the organization of work with the mail server. The first protocol downloads all letters to the computer and deletes them from hard disk mail service. As a result, they are stored only in this location.
The second protocol downloads e-mail, but does not delete it from the server. This allows you to work with letters from any computer. This set of rules is supported by all modern mail clients and most mail servers.
To change the POP3 protocol to IMAP, you need:
- Create a new account using the IMAP protocol.
- Copy folders from an account with a POP3 connected to it.
- Remove account from POP3.
After this procedure, all messages from the account using IMAP protocol.
Synchronization setup
When synchronizing, all actions with letters performed in Mozilla Thunderbird are duplicated on the mail server and vice versa. By default, the client copies to HDD mail server all folders. But that can be changed. This is done as follows:
Synchronization occurs every time you connect to the Network.
Autosign message
This function is designed to be automatically added to the end created letter any template information (contact information, initials or wishes). To set up email signature in Thunderbird, you need to:
In the letter, they will be displayed in the same way as they are written. Besides plain text you can use any html tags responsible for formatting. For instance: text or text .
In addition to filling in the field in the mail settings, you can insert a picture instead of a text signature or html document with the desired content. When writing a message, you need to call the properties of the inserted image (it will be displayed in the text of the letter) and in this window put a check mark next to the line "Attach this image to the message". This will allow the addressee to receive the entire message and not download the signature separately.
Anti-spam filter
This feature is enabled by default in Mozilla Thunderbird and allows you to additionally filter out useless or promotional emails. The filter has 2 levels of settings: for an individual account and general.
In the first case, to gain access to the filter settings, you need to open the "Account settings" window and go to the "Anti-spam filter" subsection.
Here you can enable / disable the filter and configure where you want to move messages marked as spam by the user.
Access to general settings the antispam filter can be obtained from the same window after clicking on the " Global settings". They configure the parameters for training the filter, namely, what to do with the marked letters: delete or move to the "Spam" folder.
To train antispam, you need to read useless and advertising letters click on the "Spam" button located in the upper right corner of the area quick view messages. If you do this regularly, then after a while Mozilla Thunderbird itself will move spam from the Inbox folder to the corresponding folder.
Prohibition to receive letters
The built-in message filter performs this task. It does not prohibit downloading emails from a specific sender, but moves them from the main folder to Spam or deletes them. Setting this option in Mozilla Thunderbird is done according to the following algorithm:
To add new addresses to the filter, just open it (menu Mozilla Thunderbird> Message Filters> select the desired one> Edit) and click on the button with the "+" sign. It will add another field for the new e-mail addresses.
Managing saved passwords
When adding new accounts Mozilla entries Thunderbird offers to save passwords from them in memory. This convenient function but not secure, because anyone with access to the computer can copy them. To avoid this, in Mozilla settings Thunderbird has 2 options.
The first one provides access to the available passwords. To get it, you need:
- In the main menu, select the sub-item "Settings".
- In a new window, sequentially go to the "Protection" and "Passwords" tabs.
- Press the button "Saved passwords".
In this window, you can view passwords (the "Show" button) or delete them.
The second setting allows you to restrict access to the storage using a password. For this you need:
You will need to enter this password every time you start the program again.
Setting up Mozilla Thunderbird is a fairly straightforward process thanks to its friendly interface.
