Before starting, you'll need Thunderbird or a similar desktop email program installed on your computer. Email programs are another way to access the same email accounts you can access in a browser (like GMail), but provide extra features.

+

If you are already have one of these, you can skip to Step 1.b.

+
+
+ + +
+ +
+

Step 1.a Set your email program up with your email account (if it isn't already)

+

Open your email program and follow the wizard that sets it up with your email account.

+ + +
+

Troubleshooting

+
+
What's a wizard?
+
A wizard is a series of windows that pop up to make it easy to get something done on a computer, like installing a program. You click through it, selecting options as you go.
+
My email program can't find my account or isn't downloading my mail?
+
Before Googling, we recommend you start by asking other people who use your email system, to figure out the correct settings.
+
+
+ +
+
+ + + +
+
+

Step 1.bInstall GnuPG

+

Download GPG Suite, a software package that includes GnuPG. Install it, clicking through the installation wizard with all the default settings. If it opens any windows after installation, you can close them.

+
+
+ + +
+
+

Step 1.c Install the Enigmail plugin for your email program

+

In your email program's menu, select Add-ons (it may be in the Tools section). Make sure Extensions is selected on the left. Do you see Enigmail? if so, skip this step.

+

If not, search "Enigmail" with the search bar in the upper right. You can take it from here. Restart your email program when you're done.

+ +
+

Troubleshooting

+
+
I can't find the menu?
+
In many new email programs, it's represented by an image of three stacked horizontal bars.
