Get access to your email with one of the easiest to use Windows apps available today.
If you like the convenience of mail in the cloud but prefer a dedicated email client, then this one is for you. Mozilla has one of the best compromises available. Thunderbird for Windows is one of the best email clients and it has all of the benefits of one of the best browsers in the world.
Mozilla Thunderbird's Mail Account Setup Wizard helps you quickly and easily setup access to your mail accounts. Prior to this feature being here, you had to know your IMAP, SMTP, and SSL/TLS settings. Now all you need to provide is your name, email address, and password. Once entered, the email account set up wizardry will check our database and find the email settings for you. Moments later, you have access to your mail account.
If you've used Firefox, Thunderbird will be familiar to you, as the interfaces are similar – both are tabbed. The user experience is similar and users of one will find it easy to use the other. In fact, the user experience across all Mozilla apps are similar, and users on any platform will be instantly at home. Double clicking on any individual message will open it. You can keep multiple emails open at one time, without cluttering up your screen. A tab menu on the Tab toolbar helps you switch between tabs. When you exit Thunderbird, open tabs will be saved; and will be restored when you reopen Thunderbird.

I have been using Thunderbird for years, but this latest upgrade to 78.4.0 really screwed it up. I opened Thunderbird yesterday, and it had lost it's connection to gmail, asking me for the account and password before it would work. I did that, now it is downloading OLD emails again! I remember some setting that would only download emails after a set date, but cannot find that now. I have used Thunderbird because I do not like the gmail interface, and have a LOT of folders in Thunderbird with rules to move messages to the correct folder. That would be very painful to try to accomplish in gmail.
Thunderbird 78.4.2
How do I fix this? I cannot get my recent emails now, and am really upset. I certainly do not want to wait for it to eventually download THOUSANDS of duplicate emails before it gets to the current ones.
