My dad's email passwords opened his account until August 2021. He had passed away 3/23/2021. I had been operating all of his accounts when he became unable to, and I printed out all of his various passwords so I wasn't having to ask each time. I have enough of my own passwords to deal with. I normally wouldn't need to look at his emails, but some of our linked accounts are attached to his email address. Property tax, electric account, etcetera. So to reset some of the linked account passwords the emails go straight to his T-bird email. I'm tired of hearing the, "For security reasons, we can't assist you." from the various services. So after reading the different answers on how to do this I'm still stuck. Dad never used Firefox on the computer I got for him so I'm stuck. If I install Firefox on his computer I still need his password to change the password. Help.

What I don't understand is why the password is not allowing me into the account anymore. I suppose that in my frustration I misspoke about the password. I do have it along with all of the other passwords he used when this problem popped up with Thunderbird in the past. Like I posted earlier, I was able to get into the email for 5 months after he passed but suddenly the password isn't working anymore. To keep from running back and forth between computers, I installed Thunderbird on my computer also. Both places stopped accepting the password at the same time. You did give me an idea though. I will use dad's password and install Firefox using the last working password.
