Mail Settings Lookup

#1 Post by labbe5 »

With the help of Mozilla Thunderbird, you can add multiple email accounts to one place and manage all your emails from one client. This, when combined with so many more management features, is surely a time efficient approach and using Mozilla Thunderbird can help you organize your emails and lots more.

Settings.email

It is a website that uses your email address to extract all the configuration settings for you. The only thing this website needs from you is the email address (not even the password) and it gives you information about your email account that would otherwise be hard to get.

By using Settings.email, you can get the port numbers, what encryption types your email account can use, outgoing server names, incoming server names and pretty much all the information that you would need. Once you get this information, it’s pretty easy to add your account to Mozilla Thunderbird. All that remains is to just enter the information from Settings.email to Mozilla Thunderbird’s account setup form.


There is Automatic Configuration, and Manual Configuration. Mail Settings Lookup will help you configure Thunderbird when first option can not be achieved.

If you use a secure email client, such as Tutanota, or Protonmail, you will not be able to lookup for your mail settings, because, well, it is secure (encrypted).

Cox CATV provider in USA. :roll:

Jeez, lets let everyone know whats going on in the mailbox.

Thats sorta like using a secure webmail based in the USA or EEU. Moreover, using javaScript. Just dumb. No other way to say it.
