The latest version, June 24, 2025 I think, of thunderbird on my desktop 128.11.1esr will not retrieve messages from centurylink's SMPT server and gives a pop-up window with "Login to server pop.centurylink.net with username orgates@centurylink.net failed." I have no problem manually logging into centurylink and did not change anything on my thunderbird end. Also, I cannot add a centurylink account to thunderbird either.

Compare your settings with the recommended ones here:

https://www.centurylink.com/home/help/internet/email/how-to-set-up-your-email-server-settings-to-go-through-pop-and-smtp.html#server-settings

and state your antivirus and VPN, if in use.
