In thunderbird, go: tools-> account settings
under e-mail address
go->server settings : at "server Name": as given by your provider
port: 995 (unless otherwise given by your provider)
user name: as given by your provider
make sure use secure connection (ssl) is checked.

For sending e-mail : go: tools-> account settings->outgoing server (smtp)
server name: as given by your provider
port: 25
use name and password: checked (if required by your ISP)
user name: as given by your provider
use secure connection : TLS

It may ask you for your password the first time, you can leave it like that, or use the optional remember password.
