Forgotten POP 3 Password.

Thunderbird Reset passwords

I reinstalled Win 11 after a crash. I installed Thunderbird mail client and imported a saved profile successfully. When I run the program or attempt to send an eMail, I get a request to enter a POP 3 password. I do not remember it as I installed Thunderbird many years ago. An internet browse suggests contacting Thunderbird support to help with a reset. I have been a regular Thunderbird donor since at least 2019. I hope you can sort me out.

Hi Peter,

You need to reset the password at your email provider. If you tell me, what kind of service are you using, I might forward you to their documentation about this.

Regards, Balázs
