I would appreciate your help. My account has been locked out of a good solution for lack of a critical piece of information.

Hullo, Thank you for your answer. In actual fact, I found a commercial solution to find my lost password, and I now have Thunderbird up and running after a fallow year's wait.
The solution is XenArmor All-in-One Password Recovery Pro which, for an outlay of 77.75 euros including French VAT, recovered all the encrypted passwords on my hard disk, and not just Thunderbird (my first attempt was with the free trial version, which tantalisingly gave only the initial characters of the passwords). The publisher is XenArmor Global Security Solutions Private Limited. The version I purchased works for one machine, and is permanent.
I hope thus information may help other Thunderbird users in a similar plight.
With kind regards,

All mail account (email address) passwords can only be created or modified via the relevant webmail account which you access directly via a browser. If you have forgotten a password for a mail account/email address then you will find a 'forgotten password' option or similar when attempting to logon to the webmail account - you need to use it and follow instructions to regain access.
Once a password has been reset via webmail account, you can then update the stored password in Thunderbird:
- Settings > Privacy & Security
- clickon 'Saved Passwords'
- clickon 'Show Passwords'
- Right clickon all relevant lines and select 'Edit Password'
- clear all content, enter new password and click on 'Close'
- Then Exit Thunderbird, wait a few moments and restart Thunderbird.
Thunderbird option to set a Primary Password Thunderbird does have the option to create a Primary Password. It's sole purpose is to prevent prying eyes from accessing and seeing the stored passwords. It does not prevent any access to viewing emails.
