Will a ZappyHost email account work on Thunderbird?
I would like to try Thunderbird. I would like to know if a ZappyHost account or email will work with Thunderbird? If I make that ZappyHost email my default email, can I add my other email accounts to Thunderbird? For example, I have the following email accounts. ICQ, AIM/AOL, Outlook, Windows live. CommSpeed webmail. Seldom if ever use these. I use Yahoo the most right now, followed by two gmail accounts and one ZappyHost account. Which is any can I put onto Thunderbird, and open them on Thunderbird?
I've read many posting about Thunderbird, and other email and desktop providers. I am looking for a provider that I can retrieve or get thru one email provider. And further information you can provide would be helpful.

Thunderbird can "out of the box" communicate with standards compliant mail servers either in IMAP or POP mail protocols. Does zappyhost offer IMAP or POP, a quick Google search indicates they do.
I know AOL offers IMAP. as do Gmail Yahoo and hotmail/Outlook/Whatever marketing name Microsoft is using this week does.
Windows live is a mail client, so no it will not integrate. The mail accounts loading in it almost certainly will be compatible.
ICQ indicate they offer both POP and IMAP
My guess is you can add ALL of them to Thunderbird as there is no practical limit to the number of accounts that Thunderbird can be configured to manage from the one spot. I have some 30 accounts.

Thank you Matt for taking the time to reply, it helped very much. Now perhaps you can provided help in my finding a simple to understand user guide, start up, installation and so on. It is all so confusing to this old man. Anyway thanks for the help.
I bit old now, but try http://en.flossmanuals.net/Thunderbird/
Your suggestions did not correct anything. I fixed it by removing Thunderbird, which I had intended to start using. I thought that Thunderbird was such a good and stable mail program, guess not
Ok, perhaps I am really dense, but what exactly is general questions got to do with correcting anything?
I gather you fixed whatever it was by removing Thunderbird so I assume you really do not want assistance. But it would be really nice to know what my suggestions did not help with. Especially as I made none.
