Hello, I have recently installed Proton Bridge on my desktop computer (Ubuntu Studio) so I can use Thunderbird for my Protonmail Account and my Gmail account - that all seems to work fine. I'm now trying to get Thunderbird for Android to add my Protonmail account - it is fine with my Gmail account. I took a screenshot of the error message which I will attach. I tried both my usual Protonmail password and the one given to me by Proton Bridge, neither work. I have a paid subscription. Thanks for any help anyone can give me!

AOL made me do a 2 step verification and now Thunderbird won't connect to AOL. Thunderbird keeps asking for my AOL password, which I enter, but it won't connect. I'm guessing it's because AOL wants the code that they text me before allowing a connection. So if this is the case, how do I get around it? Thanks much for any help.

In the past month or two I have been dealing with a constantly recurring issue with Thunderbird getting my emails. Login to server pop.windstream.net with username ----- failed, and then it gives me the option to retry, enter new password, or cancel. 99% of the time, when I hit retry, my email downloads just fine. But I have multiple email accounts that I have to go through the same song and dance on every time I try to download my messages. Sometimes one or more of my email addresses will check and download ok... sometimes all of them will... sometimes none of them will. But choosing the retry option usually yields me good results so it doesn't appear that I have something in my settings that is wrong?? And usually if I shut down of Thunderbird and a restart of it, all email addresses will down;load perfectly the first time I try.

I wonder if it doesn't correlate with a Thunderbird update? I keep hoping that the issue will be resolved as quickly as it came through another update or something but it's been long enough to really start driving me crazy now so can you help me? What is going on with the normally smoothe and agreeable Thunderbird on my very same computer using the very same email addresses all of a sudden?

This morning, Thunderbird asked me to sign in to my two gmail accounts. Why, I have no idea. Later, I wrote an e-mail in my cjbbrussels@gmail.com account, but it won't send.

It looks like the password is incorrect. I'm not sure how to correct it.

Please help.
