Everything worked for years until this morning when I receive one of two messages on all my email accounts:

Login to server failed . . . OR I am continually asked to enter password

I am getting emails on my tablet so it cannot be the server. Why all of a sudden TB is doing this?

probably your anti virus is doing this.

Restart the operating system in safe mode with Networking. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection. Click on your operating system for instructions on how to start in safe mode: Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, OSX

If safe mode for the operating system fixes the issue, there's other software in your computer that's causing problems. Possibilities include but not limited to: AV scanning, virus/malware, background downloads such as program updates.
