I followed the instructions given in Thunderbird regarding the outlook email account set up. I can download emails but cannot send emails out. I looked up MS website about the App password but I am really confused about how to set it up.

In my school, I have a school email that is also using the smtp.office365.com server. I wonder if there is a conflict when I have both a school email account and a personal outlook account in Thunderbird. Until late last year (2024), I had both accounts in Thunderbird without issues. Since MS started to require two-factor authentication, this problem showed up in my desktop.

Oddly, in my android phone I have no problem using both emails in the android email app.

Please help!

T-Bird one Yahoo of six accts, repetitive “ENTER CREDENTIALS” My T-bird release: 144.0.1 (64-bit) Desktop: WIN 11 Pro – with all updates

For the last few days, I have not been able to obtain emails on my desktop T-Bird for one of my six Yahoo accounts. And, I cannot send any emails from the account

BUT, I can access the target Yahoo email account via my desktop Firefox, via Android T-Bird and via Android/Firefox. And all incoming and outgoing emails are present. Stymied, I changed the Yahoo acct password. After the change, these three work domains perfectly as before. And again, all incoming and outgoing emails are present.

BUT, the repetitive error with my desktop T-Bird for the one Yahoo account persists. The POP-UP provides a long string in the URL window and the only text shows: “Edge: Too Many Requests” >>>>>>>> I’m not using EDGE [Yahoo must use EDGE for the login error POP-UP] The window in the bottom Task Bar displays: “Enter credentials” [repetitively – ad nauseum].

This is the copy of the Yahoo URL in the POP-UP: https://login.yahoo.com/?src=thunderbird&client_id=dj0yJmk9NUtCTWFMNVpTaVJmJmQ9WVdrOVJ6UjVTa2xJTXpRbWNHbzlNQS0tJnM9Y29uc3VtZXJzZWNyZXQmeD0yYw--&crumb=mdAGY49jGd8&login_hint=name_of_email_acct%40yahoo.com&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost&pspid=954010027&activity=thunderbird-imap&done=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.login.yahoo.com%2Foauth2%2Fauthorize%3F.scrumb%3D0%26client_id%3Ddj0yJmk9NUtCTWFMNVpTaVJmJmQ9WVdrOVJ6UjVTa2xJTXpRbWNHbzlNQS0tJnM9Y29uc3VtZXJzZWNyZXQmeD0yYw--%26redirect_uri%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Flocalhost%26response_type%3Dcode%26scope%3Dmail-w I changed my email account name in the display above to: name_of_email_acct; all else is verbatim.

For clarity all six accounts work without encountering "Enter credentials" on the desktop via Firefox, my android via T-Bird app, my android via Firefox. Five of the six work on my desktop T-bird.

I did not add any extensions in the last week. I did disable all extensions (and restarted) with no change in behavior. I put a 25 cent piece on the keyboard to appease the computer gods – no change.

Yup: cleared cache and cookies. Deleted password from desktop T-Bird repository, but the new one is not recorded. Changed authentication from OAuth2 to Normal and back again- no change

Yes, I waited multiple hours to try again, with no luck.

Thoughts ????

Until yesterday, I had no issues accessing my Yahoo account. However, all of a sudden, the Yahoo login popup has started appearing.

After entering the password, I get the error: "Something went wrong. We could not sign you in. Try again from a different device."

I checked and tried following:

• The authentication method is set to OAuth2.
• Cookies are enabled in settings
• Tried Yahoo account password and app one time password
• Deleted account in Thunderbird and created from scratch. The same login popup appears but fails the same.
• Deleted all cookies from yahoo in the "Show cookies" dialog in the setting.

Any help is appreciated.

Something changed. I’ve tried to set up my old AOL email account multiple times using different default browsers, and the setup typically fails. Using Edge, I get “Edge: Too Many Requests” . Using Firefox, I get “Waiting for authorization in login popup…” and then the old rotating arrow. After about a minute delay, the Account Hub reports “Authentication error.” The Thunderbird Account Hub reports the outgoing server settings test good. I’ve changed my AOL email password, and have an AOL application password ready to use, but never get asked. I’ve turned off two-step verification in AOL, but same Thunderbird behavior. I’ve got multiple computers, and this issue is the same on all. I’ve had no problem adding a Gmail and SBCGlobal.net account. Thunderbird is 144.0.1 (64-bit) release. Windows 11 Home, version 25H2. I really don't want to give up Thunderbird, but I need this account badly.

Yesterday I changed my AOL password online. Now Thunderbird email no longer works. I get a popup labelled "enter credentials for user on pop.aol.com". Within the popup window it says "Edge: Too Many Requests"

Settings have not changed and worked prior to password change. I believe if the popup window was working correctly I could enter my new password and all would be fine.

pop.aol.com 995 SSL/TLS OAuth2

smtp.aol.com 465 SSL/TLS OAuth2

Thanks,

Thunderbird updated to 148.0 today and I'm no longer getting mail from my AOL accounts (iMap). I get a screen that appears to be a signin for Oauth2 but when I enter my account info I get an AOL screen that indicates I should login with a browser already used. When I do that I login fine but still can't access the account with Thunderbird.

Why does every time TB updates it cause all my Yahoo accounts force me to get new passwords? Is it TB or Yahoo that is creating this problem of me having jump through hoops just to get the accounts working again. BTW the passwords in TB don't work when this happens.

Either this get resolved or I stop updating TB.

Google sent notice that my password had been compromised, so I changed it. When I went back to Thunderbird to open email I got a popup to change my password, when I clicked NEXT I got a Message that said, "The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That’s all we know." Then I got an email through the Gmail website providing me an authorization code, but I have no idea where to enter that code. I've been working on this issue for a few days now and am in a Catch-22 situation with no idea how to proceed. Below are screenshots of the responses I've gotten so far. Suggestions???

I changed my password and added a PIN to my gmail account and even thought I get the prompt and allow access it doesn't work and keeps asking for it again. Say that it's the wrong email or password. I did delete the old password in the stored passwords but it didn't help. Whether I use my password or the PIN when connecting to google and then chose to allow access to Thunderbird it just keeps asking to grant access again.

I have been using thunderbird for years now with no issues at all. within the last month or so i started getting errors that my outgoing pw was incorrect. Then things seemed ok for a bit and as of today I just cant send anything at all. It will download mail just fine. But absolutely will not send.

  After checking all the settings, as shown below, and triple verifying everything is correct for the server and settings, ports etc.  I cant figure this out.  I have the exact same settings in my iphone mail and it downloads and sends mail just fine.  I can send an email from the phone and get it on my desktop through thunderbird, but i can not send anything back...  Both have had the same settings for years.  But the thunderbird app just decided it no longer wants to accept my outgoing password.  I have deleted the saved password within thunderbird and even after re entering it when the popup comes up, it just refuses to accept it.  I have a feeling this may have been one of the prior TB updates???
   Here are some images.  Can anyone help figure this out please... It's driving me bonkers

Please help with the following issue when trying to setup new thunderbird email acct. I previously have been using thunderbird email acct. for about 15 years and just wanted to update. I am getting the following update failure : could not get OAuth2 for hostname = mail.comcast.net What do I do ???

Is there any way to communicate with Mozilla ThunderBird  ? It worked for over 10 years, but now won't even Install. Has there been some sort of Sabotage ? Why the strange error messages  ? Continous mandates to change usernames and passwords ?

Welcome to Thunderbird – Enter Your Email Account Password :

I'm trying to add a Roadrunner email account to a new instance of Thunderbird (I bought a new computer).

The Roadrunner account already exists in my Thunderbird account and on the previous instance of Thunderbird.

When I attempt to add the Roadrunner account, Thunderbird rejects the Roadrunner account's password. Note that I can use the password get into the account on the Roadrunner site, but Thunderbird won't accept it. Of course,

Thunderbird's error message is vague to the point of being worthless, so I don't know why the Roadrunner account is being rejected.

What am I doing wrong?

Something has gone wrong with Thunderbird. My AOL account has stopped working with it.

My AOL account works fine via the AOL website, but Thunderbird cannot access it now.

My AOL account worked fine for many years with Thunderbird until just the other day.

Now I get this window (see image) and it does not allow to Sign-In.
