How do I stop receiving alerts of login failures to an account or at least stop receiving alerts that require a response and interrupt my work flow?

From time to time, the email client fails to login to one of my accounts. This can happen in background and my workflow gets interrupted with an alert: "Login failed" Login to server imap.googlemail.com failed (for example, it could be any account) [Enter New Password] [Cancel] [Retry]

and I am immediately thrown into Thunderbird as well. This is terribly intrusive and interrupts my workflow and concentration. Is there a setting somewhere not to get these error alerts, or at the very least to configure them to disappear after a few seconds?
