I am unable to access my mails on Greenby with Thunderbird and I suspect the password is incorrect. I can read my mails on the Greenby server and know the necessary password but cannot work out how to enter this into Thunderbird! As I am no expert, a simple guide would be most appreciated! Thanks in advance. Roy

After reinstalling a Windstream.net email account I continue to have Authentication Required errors at startup. Popup messages only occurs during thunderbird startup. And Only on my Windstream.net email accounts. not my outlook.com and Gmail accounts.

the following is the popup window during Thunderbird startup.

"Authentication Required - Mozila Thunderbird https://imap.windstream.net is requesting your username and password."

I entered the username and password and check the save box. The popup returns with the same error asking for the same info. If I just select CANCEL, it pops up 2 more times and after the third cancel, the popup shows no more. The account fills with any incoming emails from Windstream.net. The Windstream.net account seams to work normal from that point on. I Can send and receive fine with no more popups. Until I restart thunderbird then this error starts all over. Is this a thunderbird or Windstream.net issue? Any suggestions on a fix? Also I have a gmail and outlook.com account with no issues.

When I use “generate a strong password”, it isn’t automatically saved and no prompt asking if I want to save the password appears, effectively making me lose the password unless I save it elsewhere and add it manually. I have noticed this on my iPad pro, but I am unsure if it also happens with my other devices. This happens in non private tabs, I do not know if it does in private tabs.

Bonjour, Lorsque je me connecte, j'ai un message que me dit : User is authenticated but not connected et ceci sur toutes mes boites mails. De plus, suite à un changement d'ordinateur mes mots de passe sont visibles aves des chiffres et des lettres credential redacted (see https://github.com/thunderbird/aaq-scraper/issues/15 ) Je ne peux pas voir mes mots de passe enregistrés Je ne peux donc pas me connecter à mes boites mails car les mots de passe ne sont pas valides A savoir que je suis sur certaines boites mail sur @outlook.com (anciennement dbmail)

Pourriez-vous m'aider à débloquer le problème car je suis très embêtée Par avance merci et bonne soirée PS : Si je supprime l'application et que je l'installe de nouveau, vais-je perdre tout l'historique (dossiers, agendas, contacts, etc ...)

I have been using Thunderbird for several years to read and send my Comcast.net email. As of 5/23/26 Thunderbird is no longer showing my new emails. However, when I login directly to my Comcast.net email account their are plenty of new emails.

I thought that perhaps Thunderbird is using the wrong password to try to get my comcast.net email. So I examined my password by going to Menu > Settings > Privacy & Security > Saved Passwords , which opens the "saved logins" window. Then I pressed "show passwords." I found that instead of showing my usual comcast.net password, it showed something that is bogus and several hundred characters long. I right clicked on the bogus password, selected "edit password" and entered my usual correct password. The "saved logins" window then showed the correct password. Finally I closed the "saved logins" window.

Then I opened the "saved logins" window again and confirmed that the password was still correct.

Then I exited Thunderbird and restarted it. Usually, when I start Thunderbird it simply opens my inbox window and shows me my new emails. But now a separate browser window opened from xfinity (comcast) showing my email account name and asking me to sign in. I pressed the "Let's Go" button and is prompted me for my password to the comcast.net account, which I entered. This password was entered in a browser window with URL "https://login.xfinity.com/login" so it seems legitimate. The browser window then disappeared and I assumed Thunderbird would now show my emails.

Sadly, Thunderbird did not show updated emails. So I went back to Menu > Settings > Privacy & Security > Saved Passwords and checked the password. For some reason is had changed to another, different, bogus and several hundred characters long.

I have attached a screen shot of the "Saved Logins" window showing the bogus password and another screenshot of the entire bogus passwords before and after I entered the correct password.

I have been pleased with Thunderbird for a long time, but this has me worried.

Can you give advice?

I have 3 email accounts which i unified. when log in I get prompted to enter password for all three accounts which I do, then I get prompted again to enter the password to all Password Manager to save my passwords which I do not want and therefore I uncheck it for all three; I then get prompted again for all three which I enter password, then I get imap login error on my main account which I click cancel a few times before it goes away,

I use Thunderbird portable. How do I fix this issue. it should be that one enters the password for each account once not three to four times. I do not want to use Password Manager to Save my accounts.

Also if ever I have to change password how do I do that? thank for your help.

I have the portable version, download from portable apps website.

I've noticed on some website when I put in my username and password for the first time I don't get a drop-down box to save my credentials. I have saved several hundred credentials this way, but some sites don't initiate the drop-down. I have checked manage exceptions, but I have no exceptions I don't see a way to force the save. Any ideas how to save them without keeper a list someplace else.

I changed my password in my email provider. TB kept saying that it was the wrong password. After a few unsuccessful tries I rebooted tb. It worked. Then, whenever I opened tb it asked for password. I then tried checking 'password manager' and it remembered the password. Fine. Could have been easier. 1. Notice that tb requires reboot to accept password change. 2. Explanation that password manager is "remember password so you don't need to enter every time".

A little more nitpicking: For as long as I have used tb I cannot print a selection of an email. It wants to print the whole thing, along with headers. I have to select, copy, paste to notepad, then print. Could be easier.

I was recently forced to change my gmail password. All of the help messages I found tell me that after I change my email password I have to save the new password to Thunderbird and I don't know where to save it.

Every time I log into a website Firefox pops up asking if I want to save the password. I do not want this prompt to appear. Where is the setting to turn off the save-password prompt completely? I am on the latest Firefox desktop on Windows. Thank you.
