Thunderbird: Mail account setup is failing despite correct credentials auto-detection of server profiles

peter.wolfram2

Hey, I want to set up my .gmx.de mail account in thunderbird (140.10.0esr (64-bit), Mozilla Thunderbird Snap for Ubuntu). it used to work, on my phone and the gmx website it is working. I did not change any of my credentials but suddenly it raised the "unable to log in to ..." error on my laptop only (Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS). After several tries I deleted the account and tried to set it up again from scratch. It finds a server profile which is consistent with the one on my phone (where it is working just fine) but login is not possible using the same password.

Just a reminder: I think gmx accounts must first be authorized from the web account to use IMAP or POP on an email client.
