Cannot access Tbird on PC, but have done so using Outlook; and Tbird Outlook & Samsung mail on mobile. Gmail: some new messages and those quite old are accessible. See Screenshot. iinet: nothing accessible. See Screenshot. The password used to access on webmail works there but is not working in Tbird on thePC. Three technicians have attempted and myself have attempted to rectify. A primary password was used earlier, this has been unsuccessfully tried. It isn't required now. I fear this may be the problem but don't know how to rectify.

Hello. Firefox saves my password but not my email address on Royal Caribbean's website. I have tried everything possible but still will not work. I know how to save passwords and email address. All my other websites will open just fine, but not RC. I always have to type in my email address. Chrome does open up both my password and email address. I used AI and did everything it said to do with Firefox and still does not work. I have windows 11. If you have windows 11 try it and see if it works for you. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You...

I've been using Thunderbird for years (Windows 11 PC), and all has been working fine as recently as last night. Starting this morning, I continuously get the error message, "Login to server mail.comcast.net with user name xxx failed" (xxx not my actual account name). I've tried the "Retry" and "Enter New Password" options to no avail. I can go directly to the Comcast website, login and get my email that way, but I can't get Thunderbird to login.

To my knowledge, nothing changed between last night and today, but yet something seems to have happened. Any ideas appreciated!

My email account is set up with 2fa with an app-specific password for Thunderbird. I manually updated all the info in Passwords, but TB still won't connect. Under Setup it keeps saying "Authentication failed: Check username and password" but both are entered correctly. Under "YourLogin", I have re-entered two different formats but still fails. I also set the SMTP server settings to match email account.

  I've been fighting this for too many hours.  Can somebody help me get connected?

Has anyone noticed a bug with Thunderbird if you repeatedly click cancel after the desktop app is launched. I decided I didn't want to access the mail box then clicked cancel and was represented with the password entry box multiple times and each time I clicked cancel to exit the app. After a number of repeated cancels, it eventually systematically opened each mailbox that has been unified in Thunderbird. Has anyone else had this experience?

Hallo zusammen, ich habe Mozila Thunderbird im Einsatz. Mein e-Mail-Konto lautet: [edited]@t-online.de.

Seit Ende Januar 2026 kann ich keine e-Mails mehr empfangen. Klicke ich auf den Button "Nachrichten empfangen", erscheint folgende Meldung: Anmeldung auf dem Server secureimap.t-online.de mit Benutzernamen "[edited]@t-online.de" fehlgeschlagen. Über mein Handy kann ich die eingegangen E-Mail ansehen. Warum auf meinem Laptop nicht?

Bisher habe ich noch nie ein Passwort eingegeben. Was muss ich machen?

Im Voraus vielen Dank.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

I've had problems for some time; I cannot log in to Thunderbird because it seems that the logins it has are, for me, lost in the mists of time.

The summary says it all, really. I've tried all sorts of Google searches and fixes, but nothing works; I was originally on Netscape Navigator, and after Microsoft killed that off, I went to Firefox and Thunderbird - so 'lost in the mists of time ' sums up my problem.
