I have swapped to Thunderbird and struggling to get my mailboxes up and running Currently my big stumbling block is that I cannot get Thunderbird to remember my mailbox password. I did try checking the box to use the password manager, and it did store it correctly according to the saved passwords in the 'Saved Logins' dialogue in settings but still the problem persists It has worked on occasions but very intermittent and for the past day or so refuses to connect The password that I give to Thunderbird, and the one saved in Saved Logins is correct and works if I try my webmail alternative login Originally I thought the issue may be my Kaspersky Internet Security butting in but I have the same problem when I pause the protection I am out of ides so any help would be gratefully received Regards Greg

I have a password. It works fine on Wave webmail. It fails on Thunderbird. It is not a typo, I am pasting it from my password storage.

How do I set a password in Thunderbird that works?

I asked this question a year ago and never received the response. I just looked in my account and the correspondance was archived.

I still am having trouble with Firefox blocking Paypal and I dont' know what other settings I can change. I've added the company to the exceptions page.

And I see I asked about trying to donate before. I am not receiving emails from Thunderbird when I get a response. One of the messages from you said your couldnt find wwwoolf. I don't understand. I've logged in under wwwoolf and I see it right there in the upper left of this page. email is wwwoolf@alaska.net

I need help resetting a password for my email that Thunderbird remembers. I've changed the password several times and a pop up window asking for a password pops up every time. Can this be addressed of do I need to find another alternative?

[I have originally asked this question in German, this is the English translation]

Hello!

Unfortunately Thunderbird refuses to save my password preferences.

I now have to enter my password every time I start it. Each time I enter it, I have also checked the box asking Thunderbird to save my password using the integrated password manager. After I have entered it and logged in successfully, I see that Thunderbird does not save it, because no saved password is displayed under “Privacy and security” -> “Passwords”.

I am using the latest version (I checked under “About Thunderbird”). I do not use CCleaner. My OS is Windows 10, my inbox works normally and I can see my emails and send new ones.

How can I fix the problem please?
