The Windows 10 Settings app lets you create a new account for a friend or family member, as described in the previous section. And it lets you tweak your own account, changing your account password, your account picture or switching between a Microsoft or a Local account. Administrators can even modify other accounts, changing them. Click Accounts (left), then click an account on the right. As well as changing an account’s label, you also can change how mail is synchronised. Click ‘Change mailbox sync settings’ and use the.

Your Windows 10 laptop comes with the Mail app. With this app, you can add multiple email accounts and manage them all from one place. Each account that you set up in Mail has its own settings.

  1. Click the Mail tile on the Start menu.
  2. From within Mail click the Settings icon in the lower-left corner, and then click Manage Accounts in the Settings pane.
  3. Click the account for which you want to change settings.
  4. Edit the Account Name if you want.
  5. Click Change Mailbox Sync Settings in the Account Settings window.

    In the panel, you can make the following changes:

    • Download New Content. You can click this box and, from the drop-down list that appears, choose to download content when a message arrives or every 15 or 30 or 60 minutes. If you prefer, you can choose to download items only when you click the button beside the account by clicking the Manually option here.
    • Download Email From. This is a handy setting if you’re away from Mail for a while and have been checking messages in your browser. If so, you may not want to download a month’s worth of messages you’ve already read, so choose another setting from this drop-down list, such as The Last 7 Days.
    • Sync Email Contacts or Calendars. Syncing involves having certain actions and content delivery or deletions coordinated among different accounts or services, such as downloading your email to your phone or computer. Click the Email sync option to On or Off depending on whether you want to sync online email with your computer.
  6. Click the Done button to go back to the Account Settings window.
  7. Click the Save button to finish and close the window.

The steps above work for an Outlook account. Note that other email clients, such as Google, may offer different settings options.

To remove an account from Mail, click Delete Account in the Account Settings window in Step 5 above. For the account you use to sign in to Windows, you’ll have to perform this procedure through Settings (press Win+I) and then click Accounts. Click the account name and then click the Manage button.

The order of accounts and identities cannot be changed without manually reording them in the configuration (using about:config or prefs.js).

Order

about:config (recommended)[edit]

  • Tools > Options > Tab: Advanced > Tab : General > Config editor : 'I'll be careful, I promise!'

Thunderbird stores the order of the accounts in mail.accountmanager.accounts. It is a comma-separated list of account designations. By reordering the designations in the list you change the order of the accounts as they appear in thunderbird except for the default account which always appears first.

To figure out which account belongs to each designation you can look for mail.account.account<N>.server (where N is the number) which contains a server designation:

Using the server designation you can search for mail.server.server1 which can be used to figure out what each account is:

If you want Local Folders to appear first you need to use that as the default account.

prefs.js[edit]

  • ~/.thunderbird/<your profile>/prefs.js in GNU/Linux,
  • C:Documents and Settings<your profile>Application DataThunderbirdProfiles****.defaultprefs.js in Microsoft Windows XP, and
  • C:Users<your profile>App DataRoamingThunderbirdProfiles****.defaultprefs.js in Microsoft Windows Vista, 7 and 8.
File: prefs.js

Follow same instructions as about:config.

Note: You must not edit prefs.js while Thunderbird is running!

Identities[edit]

The order of identities (within an account) can be reordered by modifying mail.account.account<N>.identities (and the actual identities can be found at mail.identity.id<N>)
