Time | Narration |
00:00 | Welcome to the tutorial on Account Settings and Configuring Gmail Account. |
00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn : |
00:09 | How to add new folders to an email account. |
00:13 | Set advanced filters to search for messages. |
00:18 | Manage message filters. |
00:20 | We will also learn to: |
00:22 | Configure Yahoo account manually. |
00:25 | Manage multiple e-mail accounts. |
00:28 | Change account settings for a mail account. |
00:32 | Delete an email account. |
00:34 | Here, we are using Mozilla Thunderbird 13.0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04. |
00:42 | Click on the Thunderbird icon in the Launcher. |
00:45 | The Thunderbird window opens. |
00:48 | Let’s add another folder to this account. |
00:51 | From the left panel, select the account STUSERONE at GMAIL dot COM. |
00:58 | Right-click on the account STUSERONE at gmail dot com and select New Folder. |
01:06 | The New Folder dialog-box appears. |
01:09 | In the Name field, enter "Important Mails". |
01:13 | Click Create Folder. The folder is created! |
01:18 | Now, you can move important mails from the Inbox to this folder. |
01:23 | Let’s select, drag and drop this mail from the Inbox to the Important Mails folder. |
01:30 | You can search for messages using various filter options. |
01:36 | Now, from the left panel, select the account STUSERONE@gmail dot com. |
01:43 | In the right panel, under Advanced Features, click Search Messages. |
01:48 | The Search Messages dialog-box appears. |
01:52 | Let us use the default settings to search for the messages. |
01:57 | The "Match all of the following" option is selected by default. |
02:02 | "Subject" and "Contains" are also selected, by default. |
02:08 | In the next field, type: "Ten interesting". Click Search. |
02:13 | The mails that match the subject name are displayed. |
02:18 | You can also save these searches in a folder. |
02:22 | Pause this tutorial and do this assignment. |
02:25 | Search for mail by date and save them in a folder. |
02:31 | Let’s close this dialog-box. |
02:35 | Let’s create a new filter for this mail account. |
02:39 | A filter is a rule that you can apply to sort the messages in your mail-box. |
02:44 | Here, we shall move all the mails with the subject 'Thunderbird' to the Important Mails folder. |
02:52 | From the left panel, select the account STUSERONE@gmail dot com. |
02:58 | Under Advanced Features, click Manage message filters. |
03:03 | The Message Filters dialog-box appears. Click on tab New. |
03:09 | The Filter Rules dialog-box appears. |
03:12 | In the Filter name field, enter subject "Thunderbird". |
03:16 | Again, let’s use the default settings to set the filter. |
03:21 | The Match all of the following option is selected by default. |
03:26 | Subject and Contains are also selected by default. |
03:30 | In the next field, type: "Thunderbird". |
03:33 | Next, under the Perform these actions field, let’s change the option to Move Message to. |
03:41 | Click the next drop-down, browse and select the folder Important Mails. Click OK. |
03:49 | The Filter is displayed in the Message Filters dialog-box. Click Run Now. |
03:58 | Close the dialog-box. Now, click the Important Mails folder. |
04:04 | Notice, that the mails with the Subject 'Thunderbird' have been moved to this folder. |
04:12 | You can manage multiple email accounts with Thunderbird. |
04:15 | This means, you can receive, send and manage mails not only in your Gmail but also Yahoo or any other mail account using Thunderbird. |
04:26 | As you know, Gmail accounts are automatically configured by Thunderbird. |
04:31 | Other accounts must be configured manually. |
04:35 | Let’s configure the Yahoo account- STUSERTWO@yahoo dot in, through Thunderbird. |
04:44 | I have already enabled 'POP' in the Yahoo account. |
04:48 | How did I do it? First, I logged into my yahoo account. <Pause> |
04:54 | Next, open a fresh browser and in the address bar, type: "www.yahoo.in". |
05:02 | Now enter the user name STUSERTWO at yahoo.in and then the password. |
05:11 | From the top-left corner, click Options and Mail Options. |
05:16 | In the left panel, click POP and Forwarding. |
05:21 | Select Access Yahoo Mail via POP. |
05:24 | Click Close the tab. |
05:28 | A dialog-box with the message to save changes appears. Click Save. |
05:33 | Now, let’s log out of Yahoo and close the browser. |
05:39 | Now, from the right panel, under Accounts, click Create New Account. |
05:45 | The Mail Account Setup dialog-box appears. |
05:49 | Now, let’s enter name as "USERTWO". |
05:53 | Next, in Email address, let’s enter the Yahoo-id: STUSERTWO@YAHOO.IN. |
06:03 | Then, type the password. Click Continue. |
06:10 | The Mail Account Setup dialog-box appears. |
06:13 | In the Incoming Server Name field, select POP3 and enter the server hostname as pop dot mail dot yahoo dot com. |
06:26 | We select POP3 as we want to check mails offline and therefore download all the mails to our local computer. |
06:35 | In the Incoming field- |
06:37 | For Port, enter the port number for yahoo, that is, 110. |
06:43 | In the SSL drop-down, select STARTTLS. |
06:48 | Click the Authentication drop-down and select Normal password. |
06:53 | In the Outgoing field- |
06:55 | In the Server Name, select SMTP and enter the Server hostname as: "smtp.mail.yahoo.com". |
07:05 | For Port, enter the port number for yahoo, that is, 465. |
07:12 | In the SSL drop-down, select SSL/TLS. |
07:17 | Click the Authentication drop-down and select Normal password. |
07:23 | In the User Name field, let’s enter the name "STUSERTWO". |
07:28 | The Create Account button is enabled. |
07:32 | Click Create Account. |
07:34 | The Yahoo account is configured. |
07:37 | Depending on your Internet connection, this may take a few minutes. |
07:42 | Notice that the right panel in the Thunderbird window, now displays the Yahoo account. |
07:48 | Let’s click on Inbox. |
07:50 | All the mails from the Yahoo account have been downloaded here. |
07:55 | You can now use Thunderbird to not only view mails received from your Yahoo and Gmail accounts, |
08:01 | but also mange the two accounts at one go! |
08:05 | Now, let’s look at the preference settings that are available for email accounts in Thunderbird. |
08:13 | You may want to: Have a copy of the mails sent through Thunderbird, stored in the Gmail account. |
08:20 | Quote original messages when replying |
08:24 | Identify junk messages or, |
08:26 | Not download certain messages if the disk space on your computer is full. |
08:34 | From the left panel, let’s select the Gmail account. |
08:38 | The Thunderbird Mail dialog-box appears. |
08:42 | From the right panel, under Accounts, click View Settings for this account. |
08:47 | The Account Settings dialog-box appears. |
08:50 | In the left panel, again select the Gmail account. Now, click on Server Settings. |
08:58 | The Server Settings are displayed in the right panel. |
09:02 | In the check-box Check for new messages every, enter 20. |
09:08 | Thunderbird will now check for messages every 20 minutes. |
09:12 | Check the box Empty Trash on Exit. |
09:15 | All messages in the Trash folder will be deleted whenever you exit Thunderbird. |
09:22 | In the same manner you can customize your server settings. |
09:27 | In a similar manner, we can also set options to: |
09:30 | create copies of mails |
09:33 | save draft mails |
09:35 | change the location of the mails saved. |
09:39 | From the left panel, click Copies and Folders. |
09:44 | The Copies and Folders dialog-box is displayed on the right panel. |
09:49 | Let’s keep these default options as they are. |
09:53 | Notice, the option Place a copy in and 'Sent' Folder on are already selected. |
10:00 | To set options to save disk space, from the left panel, let’s select Disc Space. |
10:08 | Now, from the right panel, you will see the option To save disc space, do not download. |
10:16 | Check the box Messages larger than. |
10:19 | Now, in the KB field, enter 60. |
10:24 | Thunderbird will not download messages that are greater than 60KB. |
10:30 | Another useful Thunderbird feature is Identify Junk Messages. |
10:35 | You can train Thunderbird to identify junk and non-junk messages. |
10:41 | To do this, you must first set Junk Settings and then mark mails as junk and non-junk. |
10:48 | Initially, you must identify Junk mail manually |
10:52 | by clicking the Junk Mail button for each mail. Over time, |
10:56 | based on your selections, |
10:59 | Thunderbird will automatically identify “junk” mail |
11:03 | and move it to the Junk folder. |
11:07 | In the Account Settings dialog-box, from the left panel, click Junk Settings. |
11:13 | The Junk Settings dialog-box appears on the right-panel. |
11:18 | Notice that the Enable adaptive junk mail controls for this account box is checked by default. |
11:27 | Under the Do not mark mail as junk if the sender is in list, check all the options. |
11:35 | Select the "Move new junk message to" field and select Junk folder on option. Click OK. |
11:44 | Now, click on Inbox and select the first mail. |
11:48 | The contents of the mail are displayed in the bottom panel. |
11:52 | Click the Junk icon. |
11:54 | Notice that the header 'Junk Mail' is displayed. |
11:58 | In a similar manner, you can set other preferences too! |
12:03 | Finally, can we delete a mail account that we configured in Thunderbird? Yes, we can! |
12:10 | From the left panel, select the account STUSERONE@gmail dot com. |
12:16 | From the right panel, under Accounts, select View Settings for this account. |
12:21 | The Account Settings dialog-box appears. |
12:25 | From the bottom left corner, click Account Actions and then click Remove Account. |
12:32 | A warning message is displayed. |
12:35 | If we click on OK, the account will be deleted. |
12:39 | However, for the purposes of this tutorial, we will not delete this account. |
12:45 | So, we will click Cancel. |
12:47 | Let’s close this dialog-box. |
12:51 | Remember, when you delete an email account, |
12:53 | all the folders and the mails |
12:56 | corresponding to that email account |
12:58 | will be deleted from Thunderbird. |
13:00 | Details may still be displayed in the left panel of the Mozilla Thunderbird window. |
13:06 | However, when you log in again, they will no longer be displayed. |
