[[!meta title="Emailing and reading news with Thunderbird"]]
Tails includes <span class="application">Thunderbird</span> for:
- Reading and writing emails
- Reading [[!wikipedia RSS]] and [[!wikipedia Atom_(Web_standard) desc="Atom"]] feeds for news and blogs
[[!toc levels=2]]
To start <span class="application">Thunderbird</span> choose
<span class="menuchoice">
<span class="guimenu">Applications</span>&nbsp;▸
<span class="guisubmenu">Internet</span>&nbsp;▸
<span class="guimenuitem">Thunderbird</span></span>.

<h1 id="account">Configuring an email account</h1>
When starting <span class="application">Thunderbird</span> for the first time, an assistant appears to guide you through the process of configuring <span class="application">Thunderbird</span> to access your email account.
<div class="tip">
<p>To start this assistant again in the future from the main window of
<span class="application">Thunderbird</span>, choose
<span class="menuchoice">
<span class="guimenu">[[!img lib/open-menu.png alt="Menu" class=symbolic link=no]]</span>&nbsp;▸
<span class="guimenuitem">Account Settings</span>
</span> and then, from the <span class="guilabel">Account Settings</span>
dialog, choose <span class="guilabel">Account Actions</span>&nbsp;▸
<span class="guilabel">Add Mail Account&hellip;</span>.</p>
</div>
Enter your name, email address, and password into the corresponding fields.
Click <span class="guilabel">Continue</span>.
The assistant tries to configure automatically the correct settings to connect to your email provider based on your email address.
If the automatic configuration fails, consult your email provider
about how to configure your email account manually.
If the automatic configuration succeeds, you might have to specify which protocol to use to connect to your email provider, either <span class="guilabel">IMAP</span> or <span class="guilabel">POP</span>.
- With <span class="guilabel">IMAP</span>,
<span class="application">Thunderbird</span> constantly synchronizes
with the server and displays the emails and folders that are
currently stored on the server. IMAP is better suited if you access
your emails from different operating systems.
