i don't think I had to do that when I added my Hotmail, Google, or Yahoo accounts to Thunderbird. I just used my email address at each of them. Are these treated as special cases?
- WhyNotHugo 2y agoMozilla keeps a centralised database with configuration for common providers. The ones you mention are likely in that database.
- CaptainZapp 3y agoI neither had to do that with a custom email. I entered the email addy and the password and Thunderbird congigured the account automatically. Snd that was a few years ago.
