I have not been able to log in and operate my personal email on Earthlink.com for about the last 6 months using my MacBook Air

Thunderbird Reset passwords

I have not been able to log in and operate my personal email on Earthlink.com for about the last 6 months using my MacBook Air. It refuses to accept my many valid attempts over the months to update the email password. To overcome this difficulty, I have updated all 140.12.1esr (aarch64) involved software, still to no benefit. My wife on her MacBook Air has been routinely checking my Earthlink email as she and I (on my MacBook) have been able to do with Thunderbird for over 20 years. I find this very frustrating and tiring. 

  I hope some of you out there have a working solution for me.  It will really uplift my life !

Do you get any error message when you launch Thunderbird on your MacBook Air? What do you mean by "update the email password"? Did you try to contact your email provider Earthlink ?
