I have multiple email accounts on Thunderbird (on MX Linux)... att.net, gmail.com and aol.com

While traveling without my computer, i had to reset my aol password on my iphone.

Now that I'm back at my desk, and being unable to find how to change the aol password on Thunderbird, I deleted the AOL imap account and have tried much of today to add a new AOL account.

In the past, I could create an 'app password' within AOL (browser) and use that password in Thunderbird... but that is no longer working.

Any guidance/suggestions?

I am running the latest Thunderbird version 140.17.0esr (64-bit) available in my MX Linux.

Hello,

There is apparently a bug in the latest release of Thunderbird, which has broken the callbacks for Yahoo! IMAP email using OAuth. Potentially, it may actually be a problem with Yahoo!, and how https://api.login.yahoo.com is attempting to reopen Thunderbird after logging in, as the process has changed. I've already reverted back to the ESR Thunderbird channel once, but on a recent update the issue was reintroduced. Screenshots are included.

Thanks for any assistance.

I have been having all my email transferred from Yahoo mail for more than a decade, it used to be Frontier net, and i didnt want to change my email, and i havent, so i transfered it on 3 devices because i am very used to the thunderbird format. It still works on my android phone and my HP laptop, but thunderbird will not allow me to sign in to yahoo mail on my PC which is what we use the most for our email, for some reason yahoo made some changes and required a new sign in so i did that on the other 2 devices, however, when the sign in box from yahoo pops up on our PC it always says " OOPS something went wrong" and i called yahoo and they verified it was not them. Which leaves Thunderbird to fix the problem. Please address this as i still Do Not want to change my email address or the Thunderbird Mail which we are used to. Some things are okay just as they are, so i would like some help from your end. Thank you, Richard Sessums.

For the past 3-4 days, I am unable to successfully add my Yahoo New Mail account to Thunderbird.

The app says it cannot authenticate my account, but Yahoo confirms Thunderbird's access.

I'm using Thunderbird Version 155.0.1 (64-bit). I reinstalled it after cleaning the installation of Windows 11 25H2 a few days ago.

Please help. I need to move all my Gmail messages to Yahoo, and Thunderbird is the only option I have.

Thank you in advance!

Since the launch of Thunderbird (Android), I have been using it. Recently I changed the email account password and now want to update it in Thunderbird. I can’t find an option in the app to update the password, and the app is not prompting me to enter the new password.

I need help. How do I troubleshoot TBird asking for a password that disappears when I go into troubleshooting mode? In other words, I can enter anything in for the password, or dismiss/close the pop up box, and nothing is effected by it. I still get all me email for all accounts. The only thing at the top of the box is a user name (pmruzicka). At this point, I have deleted the accounts that used that user name, including all info for the outgoing servers (even tho this password request pops up at TBird start). I have Disabled ALL extensions one at a time and the pop up still happens. I have set TBird to default them,e - pop up still there. I have unchecked the hardware acceleration box - pop up still there. I have no clue what else I could do at this point. I do NOT have a Primary password set. Can someone please help me figure this out? Getting tired of having to click off that pw box every time I start TBird. Thanks. Also, this has been happening through the last few updates of TBird.

Hi, this seems to be a strange issue. I have a hotmail.com and outlook.com account as well as gmail. The hotmail one was in general use/default. It recently stopped authenticating over my main PC Thunderbird installation. The PC is a new build and was listed as a "known device" in the MS account settings. I tried removing it and it seems to not matter. But it all worked fine for awhile up until Meadows. It has authenticated a handful of times since then, particularly if I'm logged into the MSN account via the web, but not always.

I've tried changing to POP instead of IMAP and that removes the authentication error pop up message but it still won't update the folders/doesn't work. There's just no error message, so I changed the server settings back to IMAP.

It's all the same settings as worked previously including on this very computer. The same settings work with the outlook.com email, including on Thunderbird on this PC. But that wasn't in daily use or as default. The one that's no longer authenticating however was.

I've tried switching to a new profile and it doesn't work. Tried reinstalling Thunderbird and deleting old profiles to fully recreate, doesn't help.

Outgoing on this same failed account does work, only incoming will not Authenticate or update.

I have a laptop with a Win 11 and Thunderbird setup similar to as on the PC, works fine on the laptop with the same settings. In creating the accounts the "test server settings" feature returns no errors as well.

I can't tell where the actual source of failure is beyond that as the error message isn't very detailed or informative and based on the overall behaviour where it works flawlessly on the laptop, worked with those very settings previously on the now failing install, still works very rarely as well, up to and including on this same PC via Outlook program or over the web, with all the same settings. So it seems specific to Thunderbird, post Meadows update, on this PC, with only that email.

To further clarify, I have a second outlook.com based email, which still works with Thunderbird on this PC where the hotmail based account fails authentication. I also have tested the failing email via the Outlook program on this PC, including over the web by logging in with Firefox, that all works, just like it works with the laptop.

What I haven't tried to do when reinstalling Thunderbird is scrape every hint of prior installs out of it, but I did delete all of the profiles folders and content. I also just tried creating a new profile and making it the default. None of that helped.

Thanks

Guten Tag

Das E-Mail-Programm meldet immer „Passwort falsch“ oder GMX verweigert den Zugang? Komisch ist nur, dass es nur mit ihrem E-Mail-Programm so ist. Das Programm bekommt keinen Zugang, obwohl das Passwort ok ist. Alle Programme funktionieren, nur Ihres nicht. Auch eine Neuinstallation hat nicht geholfen. Seit heute kann ich keine E-Mail bei allen Konten mehr abrufen, da bei allen Konten die Passwörter falsch sein sollen?

I have successfully added five ntlworld.com email accounts in Thunderbird but my two personal ones keep coming up with Authentication error. Each time the screen shows the details of the account found automatically so the information is coming from somewhere.

Advice I gratefully received was to Disable the account hub in Settings / General, then add the account from New Account, and use an application specific password assigned via your email provider.

Virginmedia no longer seems to acknowledge ntlworld accounts but says they are talktalk. However, talktalk says they do not hold the accounts.

I do not understand how I can disable the account hub in Settings when it has not loaded.

I cannot understand why two of the accounts do not load.

Can't sign in or change password. can't get mail or send. I have email through Yahoo. (Comcast.com) The below message pops up all the time.

Login to server imap.mail.yahoo.com with username xxxxers@comcast.net failed.

my email [redacted]@comcast.net

メールソフトをアウトルックからサンダーバードへ移行したく、サンダーバードのアプリはダウンロードしましたが、 サインインに失敗なのか？認証できなく困っています。受信サーバーはIMAPですが、サンダーバード ではPOP3とでてきたので、手動でIMAPにかえてもみましたが、とにかく認証しないのです。 どうしたらよいか教えていただきたいです。

Since the latest update a Yahoo Mail sign-in keeps popping up...sometimes two different versions. It's driving me nuts. Should I uninstall/reinstall Thunderbird. It's so frequent for no apparent reason that I may have to give up Thunderbird and many, many years of use...and donations. thx, deanna

I have tried reinstalling the account automatically and manually no matter which way I do it it just comes up awaiting authorization then just hangs there? I have doubled checked all the settings, imap.mail.yahoo.com 993 OAuth. smtp.mail.yahoo.com OAuth 465 SSL/TLS I have done everything that I can find so am I missing something? Chris

when attempting to view my passwords, (by selecting in Thunderbird, edit, settings, passwords-saved passwords, show passwords), I can not see them because the window, 'Saved Logins' can not be resized. Scrolling left or right does not work and clicking and dragging the corners or edges does not work. All I can see is about the first 8 characters which is not the entire password. Also I used to be able to change the passwords in this window but that seems no longer supported.
