| |
| | |
| All Thunderbird account settings should be done automatically on UiB computers run by the IT department, according to who is logged on to the computer. If this is not working, or if you are having other problems, you can try the following:
| |
| | |
| # Shut down the program.
| |
| # Run '''the Thunderbird fix'''. (Windows: Start - Support - Reset Thunderbird). '''Important note!:''' Be aware that if you have made your own settings inside the program, these may have to be redone afterwards.
| |
| | |
| You may also look for a solution to your problems at [http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/support/ the Mozilla project] pages or by doing a general web search.
