How do I configure wildblue email in Linux debian?
Wildblue is a hosting service?
Have you read their instructions?

In Linux you can use either an email client or you can use a web mail account.

Thunderbird for Linux
Thunderbird is the most common email client for practically any operating system. Developed by Mozilla, Thunderbird hasn’t actually seen any recent major updates because Mozilla has shifted most of its development efforts to Firefox. This could be attributed to the gradual decline of email client use or a simple lack of innovative new ideas to be implemented into an email client. While Google has been innovating email with features such as Priority Inbox, they require a lot of processing power, along with proprietary algorithms, that desktop email clients like Thunderbird can’t use. The software still gets security updates (the version at time of writing is 17.0.8), but there hasn’t been a new major release in a while.
Does that  help any?  :)
