HI, I would say you do not. Firefox is not a email client. You would need to use something like Thunderbird
As well you would need the info to connect and download while leaving copies on the server. You would need to talk to your Sys Admin regardless if can access a web portal by Firefox or in by Thunderbird.
As well it is totally illegal with out permission. If permission is granted then they will happily provide you with the information you need.
Hi saslanian, do you want to connect (via Sync) with your Firefox Account on your home computer, or do you want to access your work email account from your home computer??
You can set up Sync on your home computer Firefox, but you might need access to your work email to verify the connection.
How do you access your email at work? If you are using a URL on the web, you should be able to open that same link from your home computer without having to enter your work network. Have you tried that?
In some cases, a mail server might be set up to allow connections only from certain networks. In that case, you might not be able to connect from your home computer. The possible workarounds for that are:
(A) Join your home computer to your work network using a VPN program. This is something to ask your IT about. It might not be allowed from a non-company PC for security reasons.
(B) Remote control your work computer using a program like LogMeIn. Check with your IT on whether you have an option like that. For security reasons, it might be forbidden.
