After a major windows upgrade crash on a brand new laptop turned in into a brick, Thunderbird was installed at the time and all of my email accounts were working fine. I contacted PCs support team and they agreed to replace it with a new one. All Windows and other relevant updates were done before anything else. Then I started the process of installing the program's that I wanted to use. When I came Thunderbird it installed okay, I added 2 of my email accounts and they work fine. Then I tried to add my Gmail account got through adding server settings then I am asked log in to my Google account where upon I am met with a pop up window with a broken robot an error code 400 and message This should not be repeated, Am I doing something wrong or is there a glitch with Thunderbird. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Brian

For the OAuth2 authentication to work you'll have to allow cookies in Thunderbird.

At the top right of the Thunderbird window, click the menu button ≡ > Settings > Privacy & Security > Web Content. Check the box 'Accept cookies from sites'. This will only be required for the Gmail authentication process.
