Thunderbird
I have installed Thunderbird in an attempt to escape from BT's email setup. Unfortunately, the Thunderbird I seem to have I am finding very difficult to use. Things like what to view, and how to arrange the various elements to view. Also, I seem to have a long list of messages in the inbox etc which takes a very long to time to load. I'm just wondering whether to uninstall it, and try again. Advice on setting it up would be welcomed. But please note I am not very computer-literate so, if it is a product intended for experienced users, should I try a 'Plan B'...?

I suggest starting with five suggestions: - First, be sure the menu bar is visible (File, Edit, View, Go, Messages, Events&Tasks, Tools, Help) If not shown, click alt key to show it and then click view>toolbars and tick the menu bar. Seeing that all the time simplifies finding elements of Thunderbird. - Second, experiment with view>layout to see how you prefer to display the main elements - Third, don't UNtick any features until you have some awareness of what they do, as some elements have additional menu choices - Fourth, click 'settings' and review all settings under 'General' and 'Composition' and 'Privacy&Security' - Fifth, click 'account settings' and review all options for your account MANY users ignore the fourth an fifth suggestions to their peril.
Good luck.
David, Thank you very much for responding to my query. Greatly appreciated. I will summon up courage and go through your suggestions. Best wishes, Ancien (and feeling it!)
