If you want to access your GoDaddy email through a desktop email client, such as Thunderbird, you can do so with a GoDaddy Professional email account or a legacy Workspace account.

If you don't have Thunderbird on your desktop, it's easy to download and install this free email client on a Windows, Mac, or Linux computer. Here's how: GoDaddy Microsoft 365 email accounts can't be integrated with an email client like Thunderbird because these accounts work only with Outlook. Navigate to the Thunderbird download page and select Free Download. Double-click the download file. Drag Thunderbird to your Applications folder. Thunderbird is successfully installed.

To find your GoDaddy email address, go to GoDaddy.com and select Sign In. Under Registered Users, select Sign In. Enter your username or customer number and password, and then select Sign In. Once in your account, scroll down to Email & Office and select Manage All. Under Users, find your email address. If you forgot your password, select Manage to reset it.

In the lower-left corner, select Account Actions. Select Add Mail Account from the pop-up menu. In the Set Up Your Existing Email Address box, enter your name, your GoDaddy email address, and your password. Then select Continue. Thunderbird automatically configures your account. Select Done.
