Thunderbird multiple accounts - error is blocking other accounts

I have multiple email accounts - some with gmail. Whenever an error occurs with one account (google asked to login and confirm T-Bird is allowed access) then T-Bird blocks requests/checking of other accounts until the error is fixed.

It should time out on that account and then move to the next account and actually check the mail.

anyone have a fix for this?

thanks

Example: 5 accounts A, B, C, D, E

Account A is checked = OK

Account B fails = T-Birds stops and does not check C, D, E accounts.

thanks

I am seeing this with versions 102 and 118. Thunderbird authorization routines appear top "hang" the entire interface.

Glad to see it nots just me doing something wrong.

Is there a version I can install that will stop it?

thanks
