Had to reinstall Thunderbird as a windows update crashed the pc. When I try to set up my account using the previous email account , says username/password is incorrect. I can open the email account using the same password on the direct site. I coped the folder from windows.old to my program files. Advice on how I can get the "correct" username /password to work plse?
