just got Thunderbird, i added my outlook email then got to the "connect your email setting" then i clicked continue cause i wanted to use imap and got a "Authentication error". I got Thunderbird on a different device and used my gmail on that device and it worked fine. Only get the error when i try to use my outlook email and i don't know what to do.

Thunderbird has stopped downloading mail from the outlook account for my prime account, but my secondary account also outlook is OK. It kept asking to sign into my account then directed me to a web page to sign in for outlook, but it would only let sign into the 2nd account. I have tried uninstalling Thunderbird and re-installed it but still have the same problem.

The thunderbird server seems unresponsive and doesn’t recognise my password - what can I do? I can get my emails on my iPhone, luckily, but feel safer from scamming when opening them on my laptop. Please advise - thanks. Ps I have recently donated to Thunderbird!

At one time, I was able to access my email with Thunderbird. Then Thunderbird stopped working, and I didn't have time to research why. Monday, I bought a new Macbook. After installation, Thunderbird says "account settings found." Then it asks for a password. My password no longer works. Instead, I get a message: "Authentication failed. Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password." What, if anything, can I do?

// File: Thunderbird.js (Optimized Version) // Executes Thunderbird from a USB drive using the local USB profile path.

var Shell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");

// Returns the drive letter or directory where this script is executed var USB = Shell.CurrentDirectory;

// Ensure the path ends with a backslash if it doesn't have one if (USB.charAt(USB.length - 1) !== "\\") {

   USB += "\\";

}

var ThunderbirdVersion = "07";

// Construct absolute paths to the executable and the profile var PathToExe = '"' + USB + "Thunderbird\\" + ThunderbirdVersion + "\\Programme\\thunderbird.exe" + '"'; var ProfilePath = '"' + USB + "Thunderbird\\" + ThunderbirdVersion + "\\Profile" + '"';

// Combine the executable path with the portable profile switch var Command = PathToExe + " -profile " + ProfilePath;

// Run the application (0 hidden window state, false to not wait for execution to finish) Shell.Run(Command, 1, false); Shell.RunThunderbird.js

I have just changed my Gmail password and now see this message when I log into TBird

accounts.google.com needs you to confirm access again to keep syncing with your account. Username: X@gmail.com

I'm trying to set up Thunderbird to use for my email ([redacted] @icloud.com). I have an iCloud account and get my email with a browser going to iCloud but I don't know of a password specific to my email account. The password that I use for Apple iCloud does not work. What do I do? Thanks. Ed

Hello,

Tbird 153.0 (64-bit) on Windows using the Owl extension for microsoft authentication.

Everything was working fine till about 1 week ago. Apparently Cisco changed something and now I'm getting a TBird browser prompt that our Multi-factor authentication(MFA) DUO needs 'local access'. This is coming up in the 'captive browser' (I believe that is the terminology). This is the message:

Duo Desktop needs permission to access your local network.

Duo uses local network access to communicate with Duo Desktop. When prompted by your browser, please allow this permission.

I never really get a prompt to respond to this in Firefox or any other browser.

If I continue I'm dead in my tracks with this (also in the internal captive browser):

Allow local network access

Duo uses local network access to communicate with Duo Desktop

   Click the site information icon left of the web address in your browser.
   Click the toggle next to Local network access to allow access.
   The page should refresh automatically and allow you to continue.

This link is provided which isn't really helping:

https://help.duo.com/s/article/9470

Does this sound familiar? Can TBird use firefox instead of it's captive browser or allow the captive browser local access?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, I use gmail and yahoo as my onlline emails. Gmail is primary and Yahoo is secondary. I'm frequently prompted to login to Yahoo. (via pop up) New to me. I reimaged my laptop recently. Did I forget something either w/in TB or Windows? I;ve relooked at all my szettinngs. Nothibng seems amiss. Thanks for your help!

突然「pop.mail.yahoo.co.jp サーバーのユーザー パスワードを入力してください」と出たので記録してあるパスワードを入力したのですが「サーバーにログインできません」と出ます。パスワードをリセットして新しいパスワードを再度入力しましたが、やはりログインできません。 現在Thunderbirdでyahoo mailとgmailを使用していますが、gmailは問題無く送受信できています。

This just happened today. I'm using Windows 7 and Thunderbird version 115.18.0 (32-bit) . No settings have been changed and, there have been no problems signing in to my accounts until today. (I have a few accounts handled by Tbird.) The Microsoft sign in window comes up for me to sign in but there is no longer an option to sign in with your password so, I can't sign in and use my accounts in Tbird. I did click on "other ways to sign in" but no "sign in with password" there either.

Thanks for your help,

P.S. Wow. Crazy stuff. I closed Tbird and reopened it and, the previous Microsoft sign in window came up with the option to: "sign in with password". I am assuming it was fixed by restarting Tbird. Anyhow, "back i business" again.

I send and receive emails on both pc and Apple devices. Only on the pc I get a message to login to closed email address. I am unable to do this. Need to remove this re-occurring pesty message. Please help with suggestions. Thank you

I need help. How do I troubleshoot TBird asking for a password that disappears when I go into troubleshooting mode? In other words, I can enter anything in for the password, or dismiss/close the pop up box, and nothing is effected by it. I still get all me email for all accounts. The only thing at the top of the box is a user name (pmruzicka). At this point, I have deleted the accounts that used that user name, including all info for the outgoing servers (even tho this password request pops up at TBird start). I have Disabled ALL extensions one at a time and the pop up still happens. I have set TBird to default them,e - pop up still there. I have unchecked the hardware acceleration box - pop up still there. I have no clue what else I could do at this point. I do NOT have a Primary password set. Can someone please help me figure this out? Getting tired of having to click off that pw box every time I start TBird. Thanks. Also, this has been happening through the last few updates of TBird.
