Thunderbird is our favorite mail client for many reasons, but most importantly: Thunderbird is open-source and independent from big tech, making it extremely privacy-friendly.
In Thunderbird you can not only easily connect the mailboxes you've created in our hosting packages (click here for an explanation), but you can also add your Nextcloud calendar with just a few clicks.
Step 1 - To add your calendar to Thunderbird, you need to create an app password, click here to learn how to create one.
Step 2 - Open Thunderbird and open the calendar. Then click on 'New Calendar' at the bottom left
Step 3 - Click on 'On the Network' and then on 'Next'.
Step 4 - Enter your Nextcloud account username at 'Username' and your Nextcloud server URL at 'Location'. Then click on 'Find Calendars' at the bottom right.
Step 5 - Enter the app password here that you created on your Nextcloud server.
