Trying to set up Thunderbird to access email on Mediacom email servive. should be encrypted, but Thundeerbird only finds unencrypted connection. When I try to enter settings, Tbird fails to find access. If i try to accept lower security settings, Tbird protests. Mediacom is no help, their link simply restates the obvious. the link they gave me is: http://products.secureserver.net/email/email_thunderbird.htm

HELP!

The secureserver settings suggested by Mozilla are:

incoming POP server: pop.secureserver.net port: 995 Connection security: SSL/TLS Authentication: Normal password User name: your full email address

outgoing SMTP server: smtpout.secureserver.net port: 465 Connection security: SSL/TLS Authentication: Normal password User name: your full email address

After you enter your address/password in File/New/Existing Mail Account, click Manual config. and enter the above settings, and see if it works.

Unfortunate their instructions are about 20 versions old. However those instruction require no encryption at all. /so regardless of Thunderbird protest that they are not secure, they are what your provider offers.

You will probably find that Thunderbird does not detect the use of port 80 for outgoing email.... but that is because it is a port for unencrypted WWW access, not mail.

So the Contig form should look like this. Incoming POP Server Name POP.secureserver.net Port 110 SSL: none Authentication: Normal password

Outgoing SMTP Server: smtpout.secureserver.net Port 80 SSL none Authentication: normal password.
