Configuring Mozilla Thunderbird

Thunderbird includes a setup wizard that attempts to automatically detect your email server settings.

Thunderbird account configuration wizard

Manual Configuration Required

Kopano Cloud does not fully support automatic configuration in Thunderbird. You need to configure the account manually.

Thunderbird with suggested configuration

  1. Set the hostname to mail.myexchange.rocks for both incoming and outgoing servers.
  2. Configure the incoming server to use SSL/TLS on port 993.
  3. Configure the outgoing server to use STARTTLS on port 587.
  4. Click Re-test after entering all settings.
  5. Click Done to complete the setup.

Thunderbird configuration complete

Your account is now ready to send and receive email.

Calendar and Contacts

Kopano Cloud does not natively support calendar or contacts in Thunderbird. However, you can use the TB-Sync add-on to access these features through ActiveSync.

We hope to soon support EWS for Thunderbird.
