I am worried.

For some reason I am not logged into one of my local pages - which needs a log in.

So I go to the "settings" and go to privacy and to the "saved passwords".

This takes me to another screen (see attached) and no matter how many times I press the "LOG IN" (near the top) nothing happens.

Passwords/Logins not stored when using network drive

Hi @ all,

When using TB as a LDAP-User, logins.json and key4.db are NOT created on the (mounted) home directory.

here's my setup: Debian 12 with a local user as well as remote users, administrated via LDAP. PAM-login for local and ldap users has been setup and is working. Automounting of network drives is working. Each LDAP user has their home directory stored on a Fileserver and mounted upon login. All applications are working as intended except thunderbird.

So far I've tried to run gnupg locally instead of having it start a session from the (mounted) home directory, assuming that gnupg is the corresponding means of de/encryption. I've copied the profile of the local user to be used as the profile of the LDAP user, logins.json is completely ignored by TB.

Upon starting of TB, passwords are asked for and are remembered in the session. But passwords/logins are not stored and available for the next session.

Any ideas?

Missing smtp line on saved passwords

I have several email account set up with Comcast and am able to sign on to all but one with Thunderbird. That one gives me the login has failed message to enter new password or try again. I've compared the settings on that account with the others that work and they appear to be correct. However when I check saved passwords, that account is missing the smtp line for the POP account. At this point, I've run out of ideas of what to do, short of deleting that account on Thunderbird and setting it up as a new account. Help! Thanks.

TB (ver 128.6.1 esr, 64 bit) not updating Verizon emails since 21 January 2025 to my PC. AOL Webmail shows new Verizon emails. Running Windows 11. No VPN. Firewall is off. AVG Antivirus turned off. POP account. Tried: If you cannot log in to your ISPs web-based email interface, your password may have changed. If so, it must also be changed in Thunderbird. To change your password:

       ◦ Click the menu button  and choose Settings.
       ◦ On the Security panel, click on the Passwords tab and then click Saved Passwords....
       ◦ Click on the relevant account and then click Remove.
       ◦ Close and re-open Thunderbird. You will be prompted to enter a new password for the account.

Reopening TB does NOT ask for a new password. Running TB in safe mode does NOT ask for a new password.

How do I reset the information Thunderbird sends to my email provider (Names.co.uk)? This information has changed as I had to change my password on Outlook (i.e. Microsoft). I used Thunderbird to access this email for many years. So there is an existing account with <outlook.office365.com>. I would like to reclaim access to this account.

TB storing a random string instead of my real password for one account

Having TB 128.5.2esr (64-bit) suddenly start to occasionally complain about timing out when connecting to an outlook.office365.com account that usually works OK I had a look at the saved passwords to see if it was using the wrong one (thinking there could be problems with all the places my PC seems to save passwords - Google, Bitwarden, TB etc).

I found the same account not only had two identical entries with passwords that were last changed over a year ago but a third password that said it was changed on 29th Dec 24 which consisted of a long random string of character instead of the proper password that I set for that account. I haven't manually changed the password for a while now, nor have I been challenged to enter a password when getting messages (before or after 29th)

All my other accounts show the proper password in plain text, it also showed the password for this account that was changed a year ago in plain text - twice.

Question 1 Why does it show the password as being changed on 29th Dec when I haven't changed it, nor entered one on demand?

Question 2 Why has the password been set to what seems to be a 444 character Outlook cookie instead of the real password?

Additional info Going back to the password setting page of TB while I'm writing this post yet another password for this account has appeared. That also is set to what appears to be another Outlook cookie (different from the first one), with a date changed date of today!

I edited the password to the proper one in TB , shut TB down, reopened it and got my new messages (without a timeout this time) but my saved password is once again set to an Outlook cookie.

TB settings are Server Type: IMAP Mail Server Server Name: outlook.office365.com Port: 993 Security: SSL/TLS Authentication: OAuth2
