I should have mentioned that when I set up her account again it didn't ask for a password.

AS you mention AOL and have more than one account - please all the information at this link :
re :it didn't ask for a password
- Settings > Privacy & Security
- scroll to Passwords section
- click on Saved Passwords
- Click on 'Show Passwords
It will display all the accounts. All accounts may display 2 lines for each email address = username, one incoming (either 'mailbox:// for pop accounts or 'imap://' for imap account) and one outgoing. OR you may see a line called 'oauth2://' where the password is very long and created by the server,
You need to remove all lines for her account. Then Exit Thunderbird - allow a few moments for background processes to complete then restart Thunderbird.
Thank for your help. all sorted
