For a week or two I haven't been able to send any email from Thunderbird. I use smtp.gmail.com as my outgoing server, and have it configured using SSL/TLS on port 465 with Oauth2 authentication. I first saw this on an older TB version, but have now updated to Thunderbird 152.0.1 on MacOS Sequoia 15.7.7.

When I try to send email, a dialog pops up saying "Enter credentials" for my account, then "Verify it's you". When I click on Next it asks me to "Complete sign-in using your passkey". I believe at this point another window is supposed to pop up and I can use a fingerprint to enter the passkey, but that window never pops up. I have tried 3 different default browsers: Firefox (my usual one), Google Chrome, and Safari. All behave the same. Firefox might be suppressing Javascript, but the other two certainly aren't.

Is there some system security setting that might be preventing Thunderbird from opening a window in the default browser, or does Thunderbird maintain its own record of the browser? Any other suggestions on how to get the passkey challenge to appear?

My K-9 in Android suddenly stopped to work a couple of days ago. The server asks for autentification. I haven't changed anything. I've uninstalled and reistalled the app and restarted my phone a Samsung S22 ultra several times. The app is recognating some settings automatically but it doesn't accept my old password with 16 letters in a group of four with highfens in between. What shall I do, please? Something wrong with the server? The version of the app is 17.0 updated March 16th 2026.
