I have just been upgraded to the latest version of Thunderbird. I have several accounts, one of which is an IMAP account.

I do not want Thunderbird to store passwords between sessions (in case my device gets lost). However, I have noticed that the new version forgets passwords WITHIN a session.

Is there a setting that I can change so that the password is remembered within the session?
