Thunderbird Account management

We can access our Orange accounts directly (www.orange.fr) and deal with our emails using passwords stored by Password Manager. We can not sign in to Orange through Thunderbird. The passwords saved by Password Manager are not recognised. Orange have introduced a system that produces a 23 character Password which is then entered into the password field in Account Settings: this is supposed to be permanent and unique to the account. When I followed this procedure I got the error message 'Incoming server already exists', for both IMAP and POP3. We are on Windows 10 and Opera; Can you help please?
