I need to sync mail from a tablet where Thunderbird is set up and working to another device. Preferably my android phone or another tablet. So I found the Thunderbird AB Sync app and entered in the connection data. When I begin searching on the devise I want to sync to it seems to log me out of Thunderbird and then the other devise just continues to search and finally comes up saying that there was an error. What am I missing here? Is this sync app even able to do what I need it to do?

Set up your account as an IMAP account on all device you want to sync.
