Thunderbird Quit Asking for Password
|

| Neal Smith 2007-08-26, 7:12 pm |
| I was doing well with Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (been usi9ng TBird for a
long time but today it quit asking me for my password (I have never
set up a master password).
I tries to retrieve email from the pop3 server and returns with "could
not connect to server ..., connection was refused.
Same thing when I try to send email.
Any hints? Thanks in advance

close TB. Now open your firewall, remove all settings for
TB. Open TB and try again. Did it connect?

| Well, checking everything, I set up outlook express (which I don't
much care for) to try to get the email. It also failed.
So it is a problem with the mail server. I called the ISP, and their
entire help system is down, they can't tell anything.
Thanks for your help.
