I changed to thunderbird when Eudora ceased to offer a service. Nor being very Financial when my computer died I've been using hand downs. Now I have a reasonable laptop I've been trying to get thunderbird back but it won't regognise any password. Click on password not working for a new one & nothing happens. It tells me I don't have an account but when I try to open one with my email etc it tells me I can't because it already has an account by that name. Please help.

I guess you couldn't be any more vague. What exactly were you doing when 'it won't regognise any password'? Did you set up any account(s)?

Where did you 'Click on password'?
