Email Setup - Mozilla Thunderbird SMTP Settings

In some cases, Thunderbird will enable SMTP username/authentication for your email account when you set it up. USA2net email accounts do not require SMTP usernames or authorizations to use. If this option is enabled, you will not be able to send emails. Follow the steps below to check your SMTP settings in Thunderbird.

First, open Thunderbird and click Tools in the upper left hand corner then choose Account Settings.

On the next screen, click Outgoing Server on the bottom left hand side of the screen, and then click Edit on the right hand side.

Be sure to uncheck the box "Use name and password" under Security and Authentication at the bottom as pictured below. Also check to make sure "Use secure connection" at the bottom is set to No.

That's it! You should now be able to send out emails correctly using Thunderbird. If you are still having trouble sending email, please check our Email Away from Home section, verify your server information, or contact us.
