# Mozilla Thunderbird

### Integrating Mozilla Thunderbird with EmailLabs SMTP <a href="#docs-internal-guid-02fe83c6-7fff-43c0-01d7-1812c8985977" id="docs-internal-guid-02fe83c6-7fff-43c0-01d7-1812c8985977"></a>

Mozilla Thunderbird, a popular email client, allows for easy configuration of external SMTP servers. By integrating with EmailLabs, you can enhance the deliverability and security of your outgoing emails.

### Finding SMTP data in EmailLabs

The data needed for integration via SMTP can be found in the EmailLabs panel in the section: **Email API -> Settings -> SMTP Accounts**.

### Entering EmailLabs SMTP Data

In the SMTP Server settings window, fill in the following information:

* **Description:** Enter any descriptive name (e.g., your email address or "EmailLabs SMTP").
* **Server Name:** `smtp.emaillabs.net.pl`
* **Port:** We recommend using port 587. Alternatively, you can use port 465 with SSL/TLS.
* **Connection Security:** Select STARTTLS (recommended for port 587). You can also choose SSL/TLS if using port 465.
* A**uthentication Method:** Select Normal Password.
* **User:** Enter your EmailLabs SMTP account name in the format: `1.youraccountname.smtp`.
* Click **OK** to save these settings.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Providing the SMTP Password

* The first time you attempt to send an email after configuring the EmailLabs SMTP server, Thunderbird will prompt you with a dialog box to enter your password.
* Enter the SMTP password you created in your EmailLabs panel. You can optionally check the Remember password box to avoid entering it each time.
* Click **OK**.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Testing the Configuration

* Try sending a test email to ensure the configuration is working correctly.
* If the email fails to send, double-check the settings in the Outgoing Server (SMTP) section of your Account Settings.

Once correctly configured, Mozilla Thunderbird will utilize the EmailLabs infrastructure for sending emails, improving their deliverability and reliability.
