To synchronize Mailfence contacts and calendar events with Thunderbird, you’ll need one of the following add-ons:

TBSync (for Calendar and Contacts)

Works with Thunderbird version 91.0a1 – 91.*

1. Open Thunderbird client and go Add-ons and Themes.

2. Install TBSync and Provider for CalDAV & CardDAV add-ons.

3. Open the TBSync account manager by clicking on Tools -> Add-on Preferences -> TBSync. Then, Click on Add new account (at the bottom left) -> CalDAV & CardDAV.

4. Select Automatic Configuration and click on Next.

5. Then provide the following configuration details:
Account name: Display name of your account.
Username and Password of your account.
Server URL: https://mailfence.com

6. Click on Finish.

7. Once done, you can then open your TBSync account manager and check Enable and synchronize this account.

• The list will include both your private and group resources (except for other calendars: group member calendar, external calendar).

8. Click on Synchronize now.

Note: You can enable AutoSync by setting up a sync interval in minutes. TbSync will then synchronize your account automatically.

Lightning Calendar (for Calendars only)
