The following article explains how to download mail from your HostMySite hosting account using Thunderbird. If this is the first time you load Thunderbird, the New Account Setup Wizard window will open automatically, allowing you to skip to step 3.
To configure Thunderbird, please follow these steps:
- In Thunderbird, from the Tools menu, click Account Settings.
- From the Account Settings screen, click Add Account.
- Select Email account and click Next.
- Enter your name and email address and click Next.
- Select POP as the incoming server type.
- Enter the Incoming Server, mail.domainname.com.
- Check Use Global Inbox to store mail locally, otherwise it will be stored in a separate folder.
- Enter the Outgoing Server, mail.domainname.com.
- Click Next.
- Enter your full email address as the Incoming User Name and click Next.
- Enter an Account Name and click Next.
- Confirm the information is correct and click Finish.

So far this setting also works for me:
Server Name: value.http.ph PORT 995
Security Settings: SSL
Outgoing STMP Server value.http.ph PORT 465
User Secure Connection: SSL
I was not aware that the recent upgrade also affected the webmail system, so it took me a while to figure out re-configuring my Thunderbird, but there hope that helps.

Finally, I found the information I was searching for. I have been doing research on this subject, and for four days I keep entering sites that are supposed to have what I’m looking for, only to be discouraged with the lack of what I wanted. I wish I could have found your web-site sooner! I had about 30% of what I was looking for and your site has that, and the rest of what I needed to complete my research. Thank you and keep up the good work!
