Starting from the app menu button ≡ or the main menu, choose Tools -> Developer Tools -> Error Console.

Copy the text given below and paste it into the Console.

If using version 78 or later, copy and paste the following text: openDialog("chrome://pippki/content/resetpassword.xhtml"

Click the Evaluate button.

If you do not see an 'Evaluate' button, press Return or Enter on your keyboard.

When prompted with the confirmation dialog box, click the Reset button.

The problem is that I don't see an "EVALUATE" button

This after I upgraded to the latest version of Thunderbird.

Microsoft has changed securities for mails using now Oauth2 . Extern app like thunderbird on mac must used a password based on Oauth2 on a mac and mail works correctly.

But If you want to add the same values on another mac, the system replies to log on a server like school server,enterprise server. If you don't have external server and you have only a personal mail you cannot use hotmail ,outlook on other mac. What can we do to avoid this and to have mails on several mac PC's.

I attempt to donate with paypal - the attempt (after paypal has accepted the amount) demands my name, address and email etc. It is NOT the info requested by paypal. I do not wish to share that info with others I don't know. If you want a donation, just accept the info you get with the paypal response your site automatically gets.

I set a password to login to Thunderbird.

However if you simply press the cancel button on the login (keep pressing it when it re-shows) the email app opens and all emails are visible.

How is this useful? I put a password on it to make email inaccessable when i am away from my PC.

At present anyone who has acess to my machine can open and view all my emails.

thanks

OAuth2 access to gmail fails in Thunderbird

I have been successfully using Thunderbird (TB) with gmail for years, including via OAuth2 after gmail started requiring it. However, recently one of my gmail accounts stopped working. This seems to have happened when gmail incorrectly thought that I was attempting access from a new client or a new computer and required that OAuth2 authorization be re-established. Now any attempt to access the account from Thunderbird (receiving or sending mail) results in the OAuth2 pop-up window requesting that I allow Thunderbird to access my gmail account. I select "allow", the pop-up closes, and Thunderbird shows "Host contacted, sending login information..." but it never succeeds. After about 2 minutes, it times out with no further message. I have a second gmail account configured in the same instance of Thunderbird, and it continues to work without difficulty; for that account, gmail has not required that OAuth2 authorization be re-established. I am running TB 114.4.1 on Windows 10. I have ensured that cookies are enabled in TB and local storage of passwords in TB is disabled. In my Google account (the one that does not work in TB), I see that access for Thunderbird has been enabled.

I have tried many things, including moving my TB profile to a different folder and uninstalling/installing TB cleanly (no pre-existing profile). Attempting to set up the gmail account in the new installation fails in the same way, when trying to get OAuth2 authorization. Attempting to set up the other gmail account, which was previously working, now also fails. By moving my old profile back to its normal location and re-installing TB, I can get back to where I was (one gmail account works, the other fails).

I have access to another computer, belonging to a friend, also running Windows 10 and having TB installed. In that instance of TB, I tried creating an account tied to the gmail account that is not working in my computer. There I was able to set up OAuth2 access successfully. That TB installation is old, running version 91.7.0. I tried installing TB 91.7.0 on my computer, but there the OAuth2 authorization process still fails.

I have read RFC 6749, which describes how OAuth2 works. It says:

  "The abstract OAuth 2.0 flow illustrated in Figure 1 describes the
  interaction between the four roles and includes the following steps:
  (A)  The client requests authorization from the resource owner.  The
       authorization request can be made directly to the resource owner
       (as shown), or preferably indirectly via the authorization
       server as an intermediary.
  (B)  The client receives an authorization grant, which is a
       credential representing the resource owner's authorization,
       expressed using one of four grant types defined in this
       specification or using an extension grant type.  The
       authorization grant type depends on the method used by the
       client to request authorization and the types supported by the
       authorization server.
  (C)  The client requests an access token by authenticating with the
       authorization server and presenting the authorization grant.
  (D)  The authorization server authenticates the client and validates
       the authorization grant, and if valid, issues an access token.
  (E)  The client requests the protected resource from the resource
       server and authenticates by presenting the access token.
  (F)  The resource server validates the access token, and if valid,
       serves the request."

Apparently the failure is occurring at step (C) or (D). Either TB fails to request the token correctly, or the authorization server fails to issue the token. Step (B) succeeds; the pop-up requests my username and password, and those are accepted; if I intentionally type the wrong password, it fails.

I still have access to my mail in the problematic gmail account using gmail's web client, but I really need access via a client on my own computer, preferably TB, so that I can store messages locally and sort/access them in more flexible ways.

Please help. I've been struggling with this for many weeks, and I've spent countless hours trying to fix it.

att.net email uses a "Secure Mail Key" authentication method... and it seems each time I allow Thunderbird to update itself, it 'loses' my att.net email password, forcing me to go back to att.net and start over, creating what AT&T calls "Secure Mail Keys".

My other email accounts (e.g., aol.com) don't have any issues following Thunderbird updates.

Is this a known issue with Thunderbird updates, somehow specific to 'secure mail keys'?

We have 2 computers set up with Mozilla Thunderbird. On one of the 2, the outbound password was inadvertently changed. on the other of the 2, the outbound email works fine.

On the 1 the password was lost, I saw an option to view the password. I'd like to do that on the 1 that DOES work so I can re-enter the proper password.

Thank you,

My ISP suggested I change my password, and I did so. I also deleted the stored passwords, and followed the direction supplied, in the help section "Did your ability to receive mail suddenly stop? Was it working before?" it also explained "Close and re-open Thunderbird. You will be prompted to enter a new password for the account."

I'm not getting the prompt, and I'm unable to input the new password. How can I resolve this issue?

Thanks, Patrick

I've been using Thunderbird for a long time. I presently have version 115.4.3

I have always had to enter my pw to receive emails, and always have to enter it again to send emails. Why do I have to enter it twice?

Every other email client I have ever used only requires I enter it once.

I don't want to use Thunderbird to save my passwords.

Thanks for any help/suggestions.

As I cannot remember it, Thunderbird does not provide option for reset without original password. I have been unable to read messages for some time and need to do so. Please advise at earliest convenience.

However since the space they give is limited to 100MB I divert the emails to my gmail account (xxx@gmail.com). it was ok for years however recently gmail added SPF and DKIM protocols which my host doesn't have resulting that senders who send me an email to my domain email receive error messages from gmail.
