   Hello Wilfred!

    WvV>>> I had the same thing in my older TB (52.1.0) happen to me this week.   
    WvV>>> It popped up a browser window in TB with the google login screen.   
    WvV>>> First I couldn't get past this, untill I enabled "accept all   
    WvV>>> cookies"..   
      
   According to some messages that I found on Mozilla's site,     
   other people have experienced the same thing:   
      
   "TB keeps asking gmail account password"   
      
   Q:   
      
   "Today I had to change my gmail password via browser because I     
   had forgotten it.   
   Then Thunderbird started asking me for the gmail password (because it had   
   still the old one saved).   
   But it keeps asking for it each time I have to send a message or check emails.   
      
   I went under Edit --> Preferences --> Saved Passwords --> Show Passwords   
      
   and noticed in fact that it had the old password saved.   
   I then REMOVED the gmail lines, restarted TB, it asked me the passwd, put in   
   the new one.   
   But it keeps asking for it.   
   I checked  Edit --> Preferences --> Saved Passwords --> Show Passwords  and   
   noticed that it did not save the new information.   
      
   What can I do? thanks."   
      
   A:   
      
   "This is fixed in TB 68.2.1, but unless there is a 60.9.1     
   released, you can apply the workaround:   
      
   https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1271783#answer-1262722   
      
   Edit/Preferences(or AppMenu icon/Options/Options)/Advanced/General/Config.   
   editor"   
      
   SO..  maybe that is what I (we) should have tried.
