After changing password on an IMAP account, the account could become locked due to too many failed login attempts
I have not had access to my email since the April 18 Thunderbird update, receiving this error message: "After changing password on an IMAP account, the account could become locked due to too many failed login attempts" How do I fix it? Please email me at jjhpor@gmail.com because my primary email, using Thunderbird, does not work (See above) Thank you Jim Housman

What do you want someone unrelated to your email provider to do? I suggest you contact your mail provider and have them unlock your email account.
This is listed on the Mozilla site as a recurring problem with Thunderbird:
" Known Issues unresolved"
"After changing password on an IMAP account, the account could become locked due to too many failed login attempts"

Isn't this something that Mozilla should fix?
