The password that was accepted to log into Thunderbird now isn't accepting that password anymore, and when I try to send my father email, it givesves error message. It says, "Sending message from michael.moon@austin.rr.com has failed". Now it doesn't give me a prompt to log into Thunderbird.

Hello there Michael .moon1.

Delete the saved passwords. Insert new passwords. These passwords are faulty or old. Change them in the Thunderbird password manager.
