When signing into Thunderbird this evening I suddenly encountered an error box saying "Login failed" and offering the message above. Three choices offered in smaller boxes below message, "Retry", "Enter New Password" and "Cancel", Have tried all the passwords that I've used and recorded to no avail. Need someone smarter than I to lead me to a solution!
