icloud
I cannot set up my icloud email in Thunderbird.
Error implies that the password is incorrect but i know it's correct, i am able to sign in to webmail using it just to prove a point.
"Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password"
I have verified server info on apple support and verified username and password is what i use on all other devices. Username and password also works on MS outlook.

Did you enable Two-Factor authentication and did you create an app-specific password before trying to set up an iCloud email account in Thunderbird?
two-factor is enabled. On other clients it just pops up on my phone when i set them up and i enter the code in the client.
I do not know what an app-specific password is, again not something i needed for other clients.
Sign in to apps with your Apple Account using app-specific passwords: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102654

For iCloud Mail in Mozilla Thunderbird, use an app-specific password (not your normal one). Create it in your Apple ID settings and use that to sign in 👍
