First, if you haven't done so already, download and install Thunderbird from Thunderbirds official website.

Then find the little gear icon in the bottom left. Click it, then click "Account Actions", then press "Add Mail Account...".


Then fill in your name, this is the name that will be displayed for the recipients of your emails.
Then fill in your PansarPost email address and password.

When you click on the continue button at the bottom of the screen, Thunderbird will automatically fetch the correct settings for your account. It should look like the image below. If you are prompted to choose between IMAP and POP3 and you don't know which one to choose, choose IMAP. Learn more about the differences here.

If the settings fail to fetch automatically, or if you are using a different desktop client than Thunderbird, you can manually enter the following values:

  Incoming server
Protocol:              IMAP
Hostname:              mail.pansarpost.se
Port:                  143
Connection security:   STARTTLS
Authentication method: Normal password
Username:              <Your_PansarPost_email_address>

  Outgoing server
Hostname:              smtp.pansarpost.se
Port:                  587
Connection security:   STARTTLS
Authentication method: Normal password
Username:              <Your_PansarPost_email_address>

You can see an example of this below.

After this configuration is finished, you should see that your accound was successfully added to Thunderbird. As below. Click finish to go to your inbox.

You should see something like the image below on the left side of the screen. There you can navigate your inbox. To send mail, just click on "Write" in the top left corner.

Most apps have a streamlined account setup process. When asked what type of account you want to add, choose manual or other. Then you will add the same configuration that you added in Thunderbird in the previous guide:

  Incoming server
Protocol:              IMAP
IMAP Server:           mail.pansarpost.se
Port:                  143
Connection security:   STARTTLS
Authentication method: Normal password
Username:              <Your_PansarPost_email_address>

  Outgoing server
Hostname:              smtp.pansarpost.se
Port:                  587
Connection security:   STARTTLS
Authentication method: Normal password
Username:              <Your_PansarPost_email_address>

The difference is that there might not be one page where you enter all the settings at the same time.
This example is using K-9 Mail. You can use the same settings for any other app.

First enter your account and password.

Then you are prompted to choose between IMAP and POP3 and you don't know which one to choose, choose IMAP. Learn more about the differences here.

Then you fill in the settings for the incoming server.

Then you fill in the settings for the outgoing server.

Finally, fill in Your name, this is the name that will be displayed for the recipients of your emails. And if you like, name the account so you can easily identify it if you have multiple accounts.

Then you are done!

NOTE: Autoreply is not available yet, even though it is shown amongst available sieve options.

In order to setup your sieve filters for your account, and not just in your local client, you need to login to the webmail client.
From there go to Settings, then Filters.
Click the first plus sign to create a filter set.
Then click the second plus sign to create a filter.
When you are finished, click save.
