Thunderbird Email Setup

Here's a quick tutorial on how to set up your Email accounts using Mozilla Thunderbird. Note that this tutorial was done installing version 2.0.0.6

If you're an advanced user and you only need to know the correct settings without looking through the tutorial, click here.

The first thing you have to do is set up an Email account (i.e. create an Email address) within your control panel. Once logged in, click on E-Mail Manager and create an Email address from there.

Download the installer and then double-click it to begin the install process.

Agree to the software license agreement.

Standard is usually your best bet.

After step 3 Thunderbird installs itself on your computer. Click Finish to launch Thunderbird and begin setting up your mail settings.

New Account Setup. Select Email account.

In the Your Name field, enter the name you want your recipients of your Emails to see as who the sender is (e.g. could be you, your business name, etc.). Then enter your Email address in the next box.

1. Select POP.
2. For Incoming Server enter mail.eventurebiz.com
3. Make sure Use Global Inbox is unchecked unless you want all Email for all your accounts to go to this inbox. If you're not sure, just uncheck it.
4. For Outgoing Server enter mail.eventurebiz.com

For Incoming User Name enter your Email address.

Give your new Email account a name.

Click Finish.

Enter your password you set up for this account. You can choose to have Thunderbird remember your password.

If you can only receive Emails but not send any, follow the directions below to try our alternate Port setting of 2525. Thus far most of our customers have had to do this.

Go to Tools | Account Settings... and highlight Outgoing Server (SMTP) on the left. Then click Edit... on the right.

Enter 2525 in the Port: field.
Make sure Use name and password is checked and your Email address appears in the User Name: field. Also, be sure No is selected below that.

Click Ok and try sending Email.

If you are having problems, log into your control panel and in the top menu move your mouse pointer over Help Center and click Open New Ticket. Tell us your issue and someone will address your problem in less than an hour.

Outgoing (SMTP) mail Port:
Our SMPT Port is 25 but but if you cannot connect you can try 2525 which is an alternative SMPT Port. Many customers can only use 2525.
