Hallo, since today Thunderbird do not longer accept the password of my wifes mailaccount at icloud.com I try all that apple support expected to do, but not possible to read mails.

What is wrong, what can I do:

see screen dumps that all is correct entered. Password is also correct, because in firefox I can go into iCloud.

2 factor security is off. Thanks for help br Manfred

Since yesterday, June 15, iCloud requires per app password and 2 factor authentication, see this article: https://www.macrumors.com/2017/05/16/third-party-apps-passwords-icloud-access/
