Receiving All emails by using ThunderBird!!

What's a Thunderbird?
It's an e-mail client developed my Mozilla. Something just like Microsoft Outlook. But, what's the difference? Well, you can't setup to use Yahoo!Mail and Hotmail in Microsoft Outlook. You can do that in Thunderbird.

Here's what you should do.

1. Download Thunderbird here.
2. Install it.

Yahoo!Mail Configuration
  1. Download WebMail 1.3.2 here.
  2. Download Yahoo 1.3.4 from the same page. By the way, if you are using Firefox, please right click the download link and "Save it as". If not, it will install as an extension for Firefox.
  3. Open Thunderbird. Go to Tools>>Add-On
  4. Click Install and browse for both of the files that you had just downloaded. Please bear in mind that you MUST install WebMail first before anything else.
  5. Next, go to Tools>>Account Setting
  6. Select Add Account and click Next




7. Fill in your name and your e-mail address as shown below.





8. Next, fill-up the username section with your yahoo mail address. (e.g. wilander2001@yahoo.com)

9. You have successfully created your account. Next, scroll down and look for Outgoing Server (SMTP).





10. Select Add and fill-in the blank with the same configuration as shown below.





11. Select your Yahoo Mail and change your Outgoing Server to yahoo mail-serverhost as described below.




I'll continue on Hotmail, Gmail and even PerdanaMail configuration on my next post. Why? I'm too lazy to write some more. It's 3.35pm and the weather is very suitable for a nice and good nap.... Hahhaha..
