I changed the password in my mail provider and cannot connect with Thunderbird. I Placed the new password at Options/Privacy & Security/Saved Passwords but still receive message "connection to IMAP server timed out"... In an old thread it was advised to change passwords at incoming and outgoing server.. How should I do that? Thank you

Surprisingly enough, re-change the password and put the old one... Now Thunderbird asked me for login name and password and I choose the remember option... Can anyone explain this?
