Hello,

I have been using Thunderbird for some time and it has served me well. I used it to manage my gmail accounts with encryption and so on.

Recently I have deleted one of my gmail accounts and when I launch it Thunderbird asks me to log in to that account. "Sign in to continue to Mozilla Thunderbird Email" And I am supposed to enter my email.

I have checked the account settings: the old account (let's call it old@gmail.com) is no longer there. I have also removed the outgoing SMTP server for the old account.

I do not know how to stop the app from asking me to log in to an nonexistent account.

I'm having a strange problem now as well where TB is opening a pop up asking me to sign into a Google Mail account which i deleted from TB a while ago. I've check all accounts, its not there and it's not listed in the outgoing SMTP list either . I can't find any reference to it in any list. Anyone had this or know a cure ? Thanks
