As of a few days ago, popup boxes have been appearing where Thunderbird is asking for passwords for my email addresses (I access emails from four different addresses with Thunderbird). Sometimes I will get the same popup box for a specific email address appearing several times over a few minutes. I reinstalled Thunderbird hoping that would help, but, while the popups are less frequent, they are still happening.

Also, while I have Thunderbird set up to check for new emails every 10 minutes and to download them automatically, it is only downloading emails when I shut down the program and restart it. "Get New Message For:" does not work. I know that new emails are not being automatically downloaded as I see that there are new ones at the website of my ISP.

Most of the solutions I have seen are not current, and reference settings I cannot find in my version. I have tried deleting and reentering the passwords by clicking on Saved Passwords in settings, but that did not help. Any suggestions?

When I highlighted the password, it gave me only choices to edit or copy password and the only way I know how to delete a password is to click, "Remove All" and now the "Show Password" button is grayed out.

Firefox won't save my gmail password. I don't know how that is done. When I sign in to [edited from public] @gmail.com, firefox never asks me to save the password. What can I do?

I have been receiving emails for my [email removed]@aol.com account on my pc, via Thunderbird, and on my ipad. Now both devices are saying the password is invalid. I have gone to the AOL website and changed the password and can receive emails at mail.aol.com. I have gone back to thunderbird and folllowed instructions to change the pw by deleting in settings and restarting Thunderbird and entering the new pw that AOL Mail recognises. But Thunderbird still says the pw is not valid. Any suggestions ?

I have replaced Windows 10 on my laptop with Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon. I installed Thunderbird and, with a little diificulty with passwords, have my gmail accounts working. However I have a freenetname email address which appears to be installed. However when I seek to use it I am asked for a password. I enter the password that I use on my desktop for the same account but it is not recognised. I looked at the saved passwords (on my laptop) in Settings. None are displayed for the freenetname account and I can't see how to install passwords here to, perhaps, solve the problem. Some help would be very welcome. Thank you

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?

...even though the settings are exactly the same as the other laptops everyone in the group. Why are these bugs not disclosed ? One set of problems exchanged for another -- reminds me of Microsoft 'upgrades'. Whatever happened to the post about Addon icons spontaneously disappearing ? Another release bug ? And then there was the "Bookmarks vertical spacing not optimized", which promulgated a response soliciting me to, "...describe the problem...". Quite a unique experience. For us.

I recently had to change my password for my att.net email account. My iPhone and the att web mail have successfully read up to 0936, while thunderbird has only read up to 0922, and I cannot get the new password entered successfully to read any further.

Meanwhile, the sending function also cannot get the new password entered successfully.

This is the same password that now works on web mail and on my iPhone.

Account settings, server settings show the IMAP mail server is "imap.mail.att.net" port 993, username = email address in att.net domain, security is SSL/TLS normal password, Outgoing server default is "smtp.mail.att.net" port 465, same username, SSL/TLS normal password.

Settings, privacy and security, saved passwords locked up the mouse with giant cursor showing, had to close thunderbird via Alt+F4, mouse still locked up with giant cursor, had to close all other windows with Alt+F4, hoping to be able to close this one before rebooting computer.

I attempted to get into an account and my password did not appear. When I attempted to get into my password manager, it has disappeared completely and I have no access to that information

Hey,

I am seeing the creation of a file "logins.db" when opening thunderbird.

When I open the file with textedit, it begins with "SQLite format 3". It looks like a script to me, including things like "ON loginsL (is_deleted, origin)" and "idx_loginsM_is_overridden_origin".

I can delete and it's recreated when launching Thunderbird.

Is this file legit? Can anyone confirm having this file, too? I'm running Mac OS 15.7.1 with Thunderbird 145.

Thanks for listening
