  2. In the prompt that appears, click Skip this and use my existing email.
    Skip this and use my existing email
  3. Enter your name as you would like others to see it when you send an email, then enter your full email address and password. Click Continue.
    Enter email address and password
  4. Thunderbird will try to automatically identify and populate the fields. Once it completes, click Manual config.
    Click Manual config
  5. For both incoming and outgoing Server hostname, enter mail.brownrice.com. Then, enter your FULL EMAIL ADDRESS in both the incoming and outgoing Username fields.
    Enter server hostname and email address
    • Click Re-test. If the test passes, click Done.
    • If the test fails, double-check your username, password, and hostname settings, then try again.

Ta-Da! You are now done and can start sending and receiving emails!
