Creating an IMAP account for Thunderbird

To begin, run Thunderbird, go to the "Edit" menu and select "Account Settings..."

Select "Add Account..." and then "Next"

Next, enter your information such as the e-mail address that will appear on your sent e-mails

Select the option, "IMAP", and enter the name of your server, which will be "imap.yourdomain.tld".

If the domain is "ganditutorial.net" for example, then the configuration will be "pop.ganditutorial.net"
WARNING: please remember that "www" is NOT part of the domain name - it is only a sub-domain that is commonly used to direct a domain name to a website.

Finally, enter the username: this is the same as the one that you chose during the creation of your e-mail address

You may then enter a name for the account, so that you can rapidly identify it in your control panel (useful if you have several different e-mail accounts that you manage from the same Thunderbird application).

Yippee! Yoou have completed the IMAP configuration of your Thunderbird.

All that remains is to enter the password of your e-mail account (the one that you specified when you created your e-mail account) so that you can download your mail.
