Email Clients Tutorials
Mozilla Mail Tutorial
While our Mozilla Mail tutorial focuses on Windows, keep in mind that Mozilla Mail is a "cross-platform" email client: it runs and operates the same way on Windows, Apple's Mac OS X and Linux.
The Mozilla Foundation also offers the standalone Thunderbird email client: see the Mozilla Thunderbird Tutorial
Themes in Mozilla Mail or SeaMonkey Mail
Mozilla Mail comes with built-in support for Themes (or "Skins"), which allows you to give Mozilla Mail the look you want among the many available themes. Below, a hardly recognizable Mozilla Mail themed with the "Walnut" skin.
Downloading New Themes for Mozilla Mail
Mozilla Mail does not comes with the Default and Modern themes. Modern is a beautiful creation, from which we haven't gotten tired of: it is smooth and peaceful. But other themes can be downloaded, for free, from the Mozilla website.
To obtain new themes, use link below in the Mozilla browser, or -from the browser of the Mozilla suite- go to View > Apply theme > Get new theme.
Pay attention to the version of Mozilla Mail for which the theme was developed. Some themes may not be available for the latest version of the Mozilla suite. (Go to Help > About Mozilla to see which version of Mozilla you are running.)
Installing a theme for Mozilla Mail
Installing a new theme for Mozilla Mail is painless if you do it from the Mozilla browser: go to the themes download page (View > Apply theme > Get new theme), and click the Install link of the theme you would like to use.
You will need to exit the Mozilla suite, but it will be themed according to your preferences when you restart it.
