I can't send out e-mails. Our e-mail is with time warner cable roadrunner through Spectrum. I spoke with a technician from Spectrum. He told me to ask you how to change my password. Please let me know how to change my password

I can get to the "stored passwords" box, but the email I need to change the password for isn't listed there. I have tried to send and receive messages but nothing makes a "enter your password" box pop up. All I get when it tries to retrieve messages from Gmail is a box to give my email, (just that, not a password) and then an error message that it won't work and there is no more information. I'm using Linux. I've had both this particular email address (as well as others) and Thunderbird for years, perhaps two decades, and I can't figure out what to do now. I was going to change all my email passwords for security reasons, but there's no way I can do that until I can get Thunderbird working with POP access again. Thank you.

I am trying to get my existing email to my new laptop. I did contact Spectrum and all the settings are correct. Thunderbird has asked me to change my password. It just keeps saying that my sign on will not work. I am using Windows 11.

I have about six email accounts on my Thunderbird. One is associated with my internet provider. The rest are related to my website server. All of the accounts. except one, are working fine. The one that isn't working somehow lost its password. Its an account related to my website. For a while I could get incoming mail but I couldn't reply. I changed the password at my web host, and now I can't receive or send.

What do I need to do to restore this mailbox's functionality?

Many thanks for your suggestions

My password is not being accepted, so I'm not getting my mail. For quite awhile my password would sometimes not be accepted for sending email, but now it's for everything. How can I fix this?

how can I copy my encrypted gmail passwords so that I can use it to sign into my Thunderbird gmail accounts to send and receive email using the Thunderbird app? Thunderbird has now decided that the passwords I have used for years to sign into my two gmail accounts are not valid. Think Tbird wants the encrypted version of each password, but don't know how to figure out what that is. Not listed in the encrypted version in my Tbird saved passwords.My other accounts continue to work well with Thunderbird. I havve many folders that I do NOT want to lose i I have to delete and then reestablish those two accounts, but the copy/move to another folder on my laptop will not work. Nothing happens when I try to follow the instructions. Please help!!
