How to configure automatic synchronization of your mail.com default calendar with Mozilla Thunderbird

    Info:

    Thunderbird does not include its own calendar. In these instructions, we use the free Lightning add-on on a PC with Windows 7.

    1. Install the Lightning Thunderbird add-on and restart Thunderbird.
    2. Press Alt + D to open the File menu.
    3. In the New submenu, select Calendar.
    4. Select the On the Network option and then Next to continue.
    5. Select the CalDAV format.
    6. In the Location field, enter the path https://caldav.mail.com/begenda/dav/(your mail.com e-mail address)/calendar.

    Example: For the e-mail address john.doe@mail.com, you enter https://caldav.mail.com/begenda/dav/john.doe@mail.com/calendar/ as the location.

    1. Click Next.

    2. Give the mail.com Organizer a name and, if applicable, a color. Appointments from this calendar will later be displayed in the color. Click Next.
    3. Enter your mail.com e-mail address and password. Confirm by clicking OK.
    4. Complete setup by clicking Finish.
    Your mail.com "My Calendar" default calendar is now synchronized with Mozilla Thunderbird.
