Login to the server pop.gmx.net with username "..." failed.

I have several accounts with GMX. Two work, and the other two display the above error message. Everything works when I log in via a browser, but not in Thunderbird. The account settings are identical for all four accounts except for the password and username.

What can I do?

Thank you in advance.

Just a reminder: I think you must specify online that you want to use POP.

Hello there 🎅

Can you screenshot the situation? You can start up in trouble/safe modes to change and enable these functions to.

Mine is set to pop and I get this message on 4 different computers. Sometimes it goes away for a few months, but returns. Frustrating because we use for work emails. I can't paste the screen shot of the message

Hi newplumb,

Please ask a question instead of bumping an old thread.

If the problem is inconsistent, your issue may be with GMX. There were some accounts reporting problems with that group a few weeks ago. If thunderbird's setting have not changed, yet it sometimes works and sometimes an error, that is coming from the GMX server, not thunderbird..
