I have been using Thunderbird successfully for many years and use the latest version on my desktop pc (Win 10, 64 bit) for various gmail en other email accounts.
However, when I changed my password in Gmail, I couldn't implement this in Thunderbird and I sadly decided to delete this account, including smtp and passwords for this account and tried to set it up again. This fails I get a message that username, password or settings are wrong. Tried several times, without success. However I decided to try it out on my laptop after downloading Thunderbird and I was able to set the accounts up without any problem, went very easy, so there seems not to be an issue on the data I tried to use.
So I am stuck, could it be that somewhere old imaps are blocking it, if so what could I do, if not what else is the solution?
If possible like to avoid deleting Thunderbird, since I have made a lot of local files which I do not want to loose or have to recover apart from the other working email accounts.
The problem solving page shows different account numbers: 2, 8, 10 and 14
account2 (none) Local Folders Geen Normaal wachtwoord
account8 (pop3) pop3.telfort.nl:995 SSL/TLS Normaal wachtwoord smtp.telfort.nl:25 Geen Normaal wachtwoord true
account10 (imap) imap.googlemail.com:993 SSL/TLS OAuth2 smtp.gmail.com:465 SSL/TLS OAuth2 true
account14 (imap) imap.gmail.com:993 SSL/TLS OAuth2 smtp.gmail.com:465 SSL/TLS OAuth2 true
Would be pleased if someone could give advice, regards Klaas
