'Hello, I had to change my Google password. Immediately after the change, I was and am still unable to sed or receive mails, receiving the message : "Authentication failed when connecting to imap.gmail.com server". I am asked repetitively to allow Mozilla to access my Google account, because giving my consent is useless. Do you have a solution ?

I am asked repetitively to allow Mozilla to access my Google account, because giving my consent is useless.

I'm not sure what you're trying to tell here. Giving permission for Thunderbird to access your Gmail account is part of the OAuth authentication process. You won't be able to access your account via Thunderbird without giving permission.

For the authentication to work you'll have to allow cookies in Thunderbird. Also see

I had to change my Google password. Immediately after the change, I was and am still unable to send or receive mails, receiving the message : "Authentication failed when connecting to imap.gmail.com server". Giving my permission/consent to allow Mozilla accessing my Google account is useless, because it is repetetively asking me to note my password in " imap.gmail.com" but I don't know how to do. Do you have a solution ? Many thanks

And I have allowed cookies in Thunderbird.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you're trying to say. What exactly does 'note my password' mean?

Can you login to your account via webmail?

Note, when using OAuth authentication, you'll have to use your main Google account password, not an app password you may have created at some point.
