This document explains how to enable SMTP Authentication for the Mozilla
Thunderbird Mail client for both Windows and Macintosh computers.
- Open Thunderbird Mail. From the Tools menu select Account
Settings. The Account Settings box appears.
- In the white area on the left, select the entry Outgoing Server
(SMTP). The Outgoing Server (SMTP) Settings appear on the right.
- In the Server Name box change the entry smtp.olympus.net to send.olympus.net
- Verify that the Use name and password box is checked. Click on the box to check it, if it is not checked.
- In the User Name box enter your email address.
- Click the OK button on the bottom. Authentication has now been enabled. Please note, you will be prompted for
your password the first time that you send email. Be sure to check the box Use Password Manager to remember the password, to avoid having to enter it every time that you send email.
