Thunderbird Community Forum

Kia Ora Koutou from Aotearoa New Zealand.

After several hours of sheer frustration, including reading a significant number of posts I am still without result.

Thunderbird keeps asking for my my password for both my SMTP and IMAP settings despite all of these being correct.

I have checked with my domain and email provider (mail.1stdomains.co.nz) and they inform me that it appears to be a thunderbird settings.

Checking the thunderbird settings they are correct including passwords, however, the mail client just refuses to download the mail providing a dialogue box with "login to account "<PRIVACY>" failed. Enter new password, Cancel, Retry.

Is there some way to fix this error?

Hi. When I select any of local folders and press the right mouse button on it and then select Compact, nothing happens (any message or pop up). When I choose Imap folder and then select compact, everything works fine even if there is no need of compacting such folder there is a message that 0KB where freed. I choose both online and offline work to check, but nothing helps. I remember that on older versions compacting worked fine, but now I don't know where is the problem.

Thanks for any suggestions.
