Greetings, dear visitor to the Penserman blog.

This topic will be of interest to those readers who have already set up an email account, and perhaps more than one. Those who have not had time to do this, hurry to fill this gap by reading the topic: “”, there, in my opinion, everything is laid out in very detail and intelligibly.

Having got yourself email address don’t put off installation mail program, For example, free Muzzies Thunderbird. In this topic, I will try to write about it in an intelligible and understandable way.

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 have.

Advantages of mail programs

• 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 mail;

Main mail programs and advantages of Mazila

Leading among them are 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 there is practically no protection from it.

The Bat- considered the best to date, but paid.

PegasusMail- free, lightweight, but not Russified, there is no password to enter your own mailbox.

Foxmai is free, very light, simple, has enough functions, but sometimes there are difficulties with encoding.

Advantages of Mozilla Thunderbird:

• Virus protection is at the proper level, unless, of course, you open attachments from unknown senders;
• very similar to Outlook, so many will find it easy to navigate;
• easy to set up and there is nothing superfluous;
• free;
• works correctly with Russian encodings;
• there is a spell check;

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 installing this email client - this is also what all these programs are called . So, first, download it from the official website - click on the following word: -> HERE. There, click on the large green rectangle with a logo in the form of a bird with an envelope and the inscription “Thunderbird Download for free.”

Our download manager is starting to work, if you have not installed it yet, hurry up and read the topic: "" . With or without it, our Mazila will download anyway. Next step this is the installation. We run the downloaded file and see the following window:

If this program is being installed on your computer for the first time, then perhaps the “Import Wizard” will automatically launch after installation. 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 (although it was a very long time ago), perhaps it is no longer shown, 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

At the next stage we will be taken to the window of our program. I will not show the entire window, but only the part that we need. In the bottom picture, select: ""OK""

In the following picture, what is highlighted in red:

In the next window, fill in all the fields shown and click “Continue”, but please note that the email address must be written in full, that is, in in this case not only ivanov.piotr, but also @inbox.ru, too.

Here is the final installation window. If you select "IMAP"" ( remote access to folders), that is, all mail will be stored on the server, and only mail will be sent from the computer management - sending, receiving, deleting, etc., then click “Finish” and we can “sleep peacefully”:

Setting up mail storage on your computer

If you want to store mail on your computer, then put an end to “POP3”, and then it makes sense to immediately adjust the account settings records-parameters server. But first let's add top panel our email client "Menu Bar". This must be done in any case to make it more convenient with the program:

1. Left-click on the stripes in the upper right corner and a list will appear.
2. We select (do not click) with the cursor “Settings” - another list appears.
3. Select “Menu Bar” and left-click on it to check the box.

Let's see how this is done in the bottom picture:

Now on the “Menu Bar” that appears at the top:

1. Select "Tools" and left-click - a list appears.
2. Click on "Account Settings".

The picture below shows everything:

After the above-described manipulations, the following window will open, where we should find the line “Server Settings” under our account. We click on it so that these parameters are shown to us on the right, but there we need to decide on the values ​​highlighted in the red frame.

I think it makes sense to uncheck the “No more than 14 days” box and regularly delete it yourself unnecessary letters. You never know what you might need to find later. Well, at the same time, look at the other parameters, maybe you want to change something.

Adding mailboxes

If you need to add more accounts, then do what is shown in the bottom picture either in the “red option” or in the “green” option, after which you will see the “Mail Account Settings” window and then repeat the same procedure , as with the first box.

I hope you guessed that the top inscription in the green rectangle will appear after clicking on "" [email protected]"", which is not visible in the picture due to the drop-down list.

I will not describe in detail how to check mail, send, delete and other various simple things, which, I think, you can figure out using the “scientific poke” method. I will only focus on how to create a message (letter) and attach some kind of file (photo, for example) to it.

Attaching files to sent emails

So, on the toolbar of our Mazila, click on “Create”. We look at the picture below of part of this window:

It turns out the following window-creation message (I also didn’t show it all, but only the part we need), here we click on the inscription “Attach” next to the image of a paper clip:

At the next stage, we need to specify the path to this file, in other words, find this, for example, photo on your computer using the following window that opens - do what is shown in the picture below:

In the picture below is the final stage of our actions - we make sure that the file is attached, check whether everything was written correctly and we can click “Send”:

Notification of received messages

Mazila Thunderbird also has such a nice little thing as a notification about received messages, where in the top line it is indicated which Mailbox a letter came and at the bottom from whom. It appears as a pop-up window in the lower right corner and is accompanied by a short beep:

One could, of course, also write about creating backup copies and the recovery capabilities that it allows you to do. mail program Mazila Thunderbird, but I think this needs to be dedicated to a separate topic. That's all.

Good luck to you! Before see you soon on the pages of the Penserman blog!
