設定Email帳號
When Thunderbird downloads messages, it uses the configuration on the Server Settings page of each email account (accessed via Tools | Account Settings). Each email address corresponds to one incoming mail server (either POP or IMAP).
Thunderbird sends messages to the SMTP server that is assigned to the selected email account. In Account Settings (Tools | Account Settings), outgoing SMTP servers are configured on the Outgoing Server (SMTP) page (accessed from the bottom of the account list on the left side). Next, the Outgoing SMTP server is assigned to each account by clicking on the account name (also on the left side of the account list) and selecting the desired server from the Outgoing Server (SMTP) drop-down list.
Each email account is listed in the "All Folders" panel on the left side of the Thunderbird interface:
For information about manually configuring email accounts, see Configure an Account. For information about automatically configure new email accounts, see 帳號自動設定.
下載郵件
The Server Settings page in the Account Settings is used to specify the frequency with which Thunderbird should automatically check the mail server(s) for new messages.
When you click the Get Mail button in the top left corner of Thunderbird's main window, Thunderbird will check the servers for all configured email accounts. Alternatively, select File | Get New Messages for | All Accounts. Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + T (Windows and Linux) or Command + Shift + T (Mac).
To get messages for a single account, right-click the email account in the "All Folders" panel and select Get Messages. Alternatively, select File | Get New Messages for | Current Account (where "Current Account" is the account highlighted in the "All Folders" list). Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + T, F9 (Linux), Command + T, F9 (Mac), F5 (Windows).
See 鍵盤快捷鍵——快速執行 Firefox 日常任務 for a complete list.
寫信
To compose a new message, click the Write button in the top left corner of the main Thunderbird interface. Alternatively, select Message | New Message or use the keyboard shortcut Command + N (Mac) / Ctrl + M (Windows / Linux).
If an email (or newsgroup) account is highlighted in the "All Folders" panel, the message's "From" address will default to the selected account. If no account is specified, the "From" address will default to the first account configured in the Account Settings (Tools | Account Settings). Click the From drop-down list to select a different account.
Specify one message recipient per line. Click the arrow in the field to the left of the recipient name to specify the type of recipient (for example, "To", "CC", etc).
To insert addresses from your address book, enter some of the characters from the person's name in the To field. A drop-down list will show all address book entries where the first or last name starts with the character(s) you entered. For example, if you enter "jo", anyone in the address book with the last name of "Johnson" or the first name of "Joe" would be displayed in the drop-down list.
You can also drag and drop addresses from your address book to a new message. Simply open the address book, select the desired entry and drag it to the recipient area of the new message.
回覆郵件
To reply to a message, click the Reply or Reply All button when the message is displayed. Alternatively, right-click the message in the Message List and select Reply to Sender Only (Ctrl / Command + R), Reply to All (Ctrl / Command + Shift + R) or Reply to List (Ctrl / Command + Shift + L).
