Configuring Thunderbird

You can configure your mailbox in the Thunderbird software, which is the recommended mail client at ISIMA/LIMOS. You can also configure your calendar and address book.

Installation

Windows and Mac

Go to this download link: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/

Ubuntu and Debian

In a terminal

sudo apt update
sudo apt install thunderbird

Configure your mail account

It's very simple. Start by opening the Thunderbird software, then follow the sequence shown below, adapting it to your profile:

!client-tb-mail-add-mail-account

When asked for your email address, you can choose either (@isima.fr or @limos.fr) and the same applies to the server (mail.isima.fr or mail.limos.fr).

In any case, this is a unified mailbox and you can communicate using either of these addresses.

The password requested is your ENT (Digital Campus) password

Configure your signature

To create your signature in Thunderbird and use an image in it, like this:

ISIMA INP

LASTNAME Firstname
Executive Secretary
Management Team
+33 4 70 40 00 00

ISIMA
1 rue de la Chebarde, Campus des Cézeaux, 63178 AUBIERE Cedex

Twitter    LinkedIn    Facebook


Then use the following HTML code to create it. Remember to customize your name, first name, job title, department, email address, and phone number:

        <!-- Thunderbird Signature -->
