Thunderbird is a great email client software for managing your email.
Here's how you can check for new emails in Mozilla Thunderbird.
1. Open Mozilla Thunderbird.
2. In the left panel, you can see a list of your email accounts.
Double-click on Inbox or if it is hidden, click on your email.
It will expand to show the inbox, the trash list, etc.
Another option is to right-click on the email address and choose "Get Messages".
Thunderbird also automatically checks email every 5 to 10 minutes.
It also does that automatically whenever you open the program.
