<h1>Synchronizing with Thunderbird<a class="headerlink" href="#synchronizing-with-thunderbird" title="Link to this heading"></a></h1>
<p><a class="reference external" href="https://www.thunderbird.net">Thunderbird</a> is a feature-rich and mature mail client that can be turned into a full-fledged Personal Information Manager (PIM). Since version 102, it supports address book synchronization via CardDAV and automatic discovery of calendars and address books available on the server.</p>
<section id="recommended-method">
<h2>Recommended method<a class="headerlink" href="#recommended-method" title="Link to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>Since Thunderbird 102, the CardDAV &amp; CalDAV protocols are natively supported.</p>
<section id="contacts">
<h3>Contacts<a class="headerlink" href="#contacts" title="Link to this heading"></a></h3>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li><p>On the address book view, click the down arrow near <strong>New Address Book</strong> and choose <strong>Add CardDAV Address Book</strong>.</p></li>
<li><p>In the next window, type your <strong>Username</strong> and <strong>Location</strong> (Server URL).</p></li>
<li><p>The next window will ask for your username and password for this account.</p></li>
<li><p>The previous window will be refreshed and ask you which address books you wish to sync.</p></li>
<li><p>Choose and then click <strong>Continue</strong>.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>If you later want to add a new address book, you can redo all of those steps and only the books not already synchronized will be suggested.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>If your account uses two-factor authentication, you need a <a class="reference internal" href="../session_management.html#managing-devices"><span class="std std-ref">dedicated app password</span></a> for login rather than your
regular password.</p>

<li><p>Choose which calendars you want to add and click <strong>Subscribe</strong></p></li>
