   Hi August,   
      
   On 2020-12-17 20:26:00, you wrote to me:   
      
    WvV>>>> I had the same thing in my older TB (52.1.0) happen to me this   
    WvV>>>> week. It popped up a browser window in TB with the google login   
    WvV>>>> screen. First I couldn't get past this, untill I enabled "accept   
    WvV>>>> all cookies"..

    AA> other people have experienced the same thing:   
      
    AA> "TB keeps asking gmail account password"   
      
    AA> Q:   
      
    AA> "Today I had to change my gmail password via browser because I   
    AA> had forgotten it.   
    AA> Then Thunderbird started asking me for the gmail password (because it had

    AA> What can I do? thanks."

    AA> editor"   
      
    AA> SO..  maybe that is what I (we) should have tried.   
      
   If I remember correctly I checked the password that was set in TB, and that   
   was the correct one. And I haven't changed my gmail password in ages...   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
