Thunderbird Community Forum

For some time now two Thunderbird Icons have displayed in my Windows task bar. One opens the program I have used for years as normal but the other opens a sign-in screen requiring a user name and password. Today only one version appears and that is the sign in screen. After a lot of steps -including a request for Thunderbird to access my Google account I finally got access to the two e-mail accounts I keep on "my" Thunderbird but the display is far harder to read than the earlier one. After I exited the program I found to re-open it I got the same log-on screen??? How can I access the Mozilla program I am familiar with?

For whatever reason, although I've had this account for years and regularly contribute I always get this page at startup begging me for more money and even if I donate, I can't get past the begging page.

I am now locked out of the account. No login info works and I'm unable to access years of emails

I have not changed my password since I opened the account and frankly I am as aggravated and pissed off as can be. I can't get to do anything at all but read the page begging me for money even after I just made another contribution and although I haven't changed any login info I keep getting the login failed message

Using Thunderbird for my mail. ATT Yahoo is my provided. My ATT password is not allowing me to get my mail. I keep getting a message to re enter my password. Password does allow me to sign in to my att account.

I have thunderbird emails but lost my passwords so I cannot gain access to them.

The accounts are: business1st.org [redacted] @business1st.org [redacted] @business1st.org

Please use phone/text [redacted] or email [redacted] @icloud.com I am at 88 years so I look forward to your help.

Lorsque j'essaie d'ajouter un nouveau compte, la configuration est trouvé dans la base de données des FAI de Mozilla, je clic sur "continuer", dans la fenêtre Popup j'autorise Thunderbird a accéder à mes informations, ensuite j'ai le message "erreur d'authentification". Pourtant mon mot de passe est correcte.

When I log into thunderbird, warning messages keep coming up asking me to input my password. The messages keep coming even when I put in the password. It takes a long time to download messages and almost allways blocks me sending. I have to to my providers webmail to do any work.

Why does every time TB updates it cause all my Yahoo accounts force me to get new passwords? Is it TB or Yahoo that is creating this problem of me having jump through hoops just to get the accounts working again. BTW the passwords in TB don't work when this happens.

Either this get resolved or I stop updating TB.

Ich habe mir heute das Programm installiert und beim Einloggen werde ich nach meinem Namen, meiner Emailadresse und nach meinem Emailpasswort gefragt, doch leider wird mir immer ein Fehler angezeigt! Ich habe jedoch alle Daten auf ihre Korrektheit überprüft und kann keine Fehleingabe finden.

I set up a new email and must have done something wrong. I'm getting this message: he STAT command did not succeed. Error getting message number and sizes. Mail server pop.gmail.com responded: [AUTH] Username and password not accepted.

What do I do?

I've had a Thunderbird email account for years. My laptop quit, so I've set up the account on a new laptop. I discovered that I hadn't saved my Thunderbird password, so I followed the procedure for "forgot password". This included a new p/w, and I also got a Mozilla PIN (for future Microsoft Password Manager use), and got a Mozilla Account Recovery Key, again for future use. But I can't log into my Thunderbird account. I get the message "Authentication Error" (Wrong p/w, email, etc.) Changing IMAP / POP settings didn't help, though I did go with the recommended IMAP setting.

Any suggestions?
