Hi I'm not receiving my emails, I did find out that because I had not used my bigpond email for 180 days Telstra has cancelled it. They have now reconnented it but i'm not able to log into my thunderbird account. Thunderbird is asking me for my password. I have tried all the passwords I know of but nothing works. Can you help me please. I am able to receive emails on my mobile phone using Gmail.

Regards Robyn
