Just correcting the following.
I have the newest thunderbird and I am currently using my Hotmail account on it.
Need instruction? 1. Go to file NEW
2. Then go to MAIL ACCOUNT
3. You will notice a dialog box asking you to fill in you NAME, EMAIL ADDRESS (can be @gmail, @hotmail, or even @eq.edu.au (Australia))
4. Once you enter the information and click okay, it will start some configurating then it will automatically finish.. EASY. hope I helped.
AND with all due respect to the person below me. You probably wrote that while using an old thunderbird the newest which you can get from the mozilla site has a lot more to it and IS better to use, its worth updating often. Thanks, MissyElliot
No you cannot use Mozilla Thunderbird with hotmail, i have tried everything to my knowledge and nothing has worked, the simple fact is Mozilla Thunderbird does not support http servers except for gmail, (witch doesnt make since), the bottom line is, you cannot add a custom server URL (witch in this case the hotmail server is, http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.com)
What else can I help you with?

To set up your Hotmail account in Thunderbird, use the following incoming server settings: for IMAP, use imap-mail.outlook.com with port 993 and SSL/TLS encryption. If you prefer POP3, use pop-mail.outlook.com with port 995 and SSL/TLS encryption. Make sure to enter your full Hotmail email address as the username and your password.

What are the Hotmail settings for Thunderbird?
Thunderbird cannot access Hotmail directly. It is a webmail only service. The only way to access hotmail with Thunderbird is to use some sort of gateway program to translate between POP and Hotmail's webmail. One such program is "Webmail Retriever" you can find it at: http://www.apocgraphy.com/WebmailRetrieverRed Hope that Helps! OPTION 2 Use WEBMAIL add-ons (they work just like with firefox) You will need two add-ons, "webmail" (main add-on) and "hotmail" (for hotmail, you can set up others for yahoo etc.) You can download add-ons from webmail.mozdev.org Follow the instructions from website (http://webmail.mozdev.org/setup.html) Be careful to install webmail add-on before the hotmail one!

How do you copy the inbox from windows mail in vista to mozilla thunderbird?
To copy your inbox from Windows Mail in Vista to Mozilla Thunderbird, first, locate your Windows Mail inbox files, typically found in the folder C:\Users\[YourUsername]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail\Local Folders. Copy the .eml files from the inbox folder. Then, open Thunderbird, create a new folder where you want to import the emails, and drag and drop the copied .eml files into that folder in Thunderbird. Alternatively, you can use the ImportExportTools NG add-on in Thunderbird for a more streamlined import process.
