I have a new laptop with windows 11 (previously had a computer with windows 10) I got Thurderbird onto my new laptop however when I try to get in emails it keeps asking me for a new password. I keep entering the password for my provider but it does not remember it or does not accept itl It says its trying to connect to server but never does. then after a while it says it timed out. Is there another password I should be using?
