Using Thunderbird b150, but have tried -esr and regular TB. New install of Win11 26200.8037. Up to date Firefox. Have been trying for a week for Thunderbird to authenticate my Outlook account. Worked with Copilot. Finally found a TB setting, network.proxy.allow_hijacking_localhost, that was set to FALSE. Set it to TRUE and Outlook account authenticated. Able to finally send mail. This was last night. This morning: Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.office365.com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again. No changed to any programs. Have deleted Outlook saved password. Thunderbird NEVER offers to get password/authenticate. I am truly and sincerely frustrated.

If someone can help me, would sincerely appreciate.

While trying to retrieve new messages for one of my email accounts, I keep getting the message "Login to server xxx.xxx.xxx with username xxx@xxx.xxx failed."

I click the "Enter New Password" button and enter the same password that I use to successfully login to the account on a browser, and it STILL fails and keeps showing the same message box.

This started happening this morning. Have others reported this problem? What do I need to check to see if there is a problem in either Thunderbird or in my email account settings?

Thanks for your help!

how to change primary password manager to another 100% trusted password manager like proton pass, nord pass, bitwarden password manager etc.. in firefox.

In windows and android, if there is no feature means kindly add that features.

Thunderbird won't let me login and doesn't deliver my emails. I have reset my password and still can't get my emails. How do I get some assistance on this issue?

13 Nov. I have been dealing with the problem of the requirement to sign in to Thunderbird using Google. It does not work. I enter my e-mail address, click next, and get a second window that says "Error 400". I tried to get some help with this through a company listed on the internet as Just Answer. That turned out to be a scam.

Someone called me this morning, offering to help me with this problem. The person was from the company The Web Services. While the technician from Web Services was working on my computer for a while to restore my Thunderbird files, he told he that they kept losing the internet connection to my computer. He said they had determined that they kept losing the internet connection, because some hackers were hacking into my computer, while they were working. He showed me a lot of evidence of hacking on my computer, indicating that the 2 technicians from Just Answer who had helped me the day before through long chats were hacking into my computer the entire time they were chatting with me, going through steps they said would solve the problem with having to sign in to Thunderbird using Google. I think the people from Just Answer had tried to create a Thunderbird back-up profile, but had not done it correctly. As a result, all the data within Thunderbird was lost. I cancelled my subscription with Just Answer today.

The technician from The Web Services was able to restore my Thunderbird, including the many local files I have. Some additional formatting of the site still needs to be done, and the correct server settings need to be set up. That is to be finished tomorrow morning. The Web Services person also sold me an anti-hacking firewall, which is supposed to also provide network security.

I am concerned, because on the Mozilla support page, it specifically states that Thunderbird does not offer phone support. I gave this company access to my computer today, so they could restore my Thunderbird files. The Thunderbird files have been restored. Now I see that the issue with trying unsuccessfully to sign in to Thunderbird using Google is still there. So I am right back where I started over a week ago, trying to find someone who can solve the issues that come up when I try to sign into Thunderbird with Google.

I am somewhat suspicious of the company The Web Services, because they called me and offered to fix the problems I am having with signing in to Thunderbird. Please let me know whether it was unwise to let them work on my computer today. Could this be another scam? Thank you.

I recently refreshed my computer and moved the old profiles folder to the new firefox profiles folder in roaming Folder in Win10 but my passwords wont apear even though logins and key4 are in the folder

When I checked the box to Require a Primary Password, I did not know this was an always and forever thing. I have found out that it is an every time I open my email in Thunderbird. I can not undo it. Is there not a way to get around this?

i cannot get Gmail configured in Thunderbird. ive deleted it and re tried countless times but is keeps saying wrong credentials. ive followed all the guides and done everything . what is NOT happening , is Thunderbird does not open a browser to sign in with google. why?

I have 3 computers all running the latest version of Thunderbird. All are setup to access gmail via imap with Oauth type authentication. I was away and didn't use one of the computers for a month. On this computer, when I try to download messages, I get a Google pop-up asking me to allow Thunderbird access. I click on ALLOW but then get a message on Thunderbird "authentication failure on incoming server imap:gmail.com" I have tried copying the App/roaming/thunderbird "settings" folder from a working computer to this one but that didn't do anything. I have tried setting up a different existing gmail address in File/New but this one had the same issue. When setting this up, I tried leaving the password field blank and also tried by putting in the correct password to that gmail address. I am out of ideas and would sure appreciate some help!!!
