Midway through this morning my email account stopped sending emails through Thunderbird. i can send through my iPhone but not through Thunderbird. I cannot find access the account either as am not sure what the Account Name is. All the Account Name and password combo's that I would use are not working and with deadlines due, this is causing a backlog of work.

I have tried to attach the two error massages that keep coming up but the system does not want to accept them.

I have rebooted the system to see if that helps and checked all the settings as recommended... all to no avail.

I am not aware of having changed any settings.

Please help!

Neil,

If you have a Mac, you can use iCloud to sync your keychain between all your devices. Then you can use your keychain app in Applications -> Utilities -> Keychain Access to view the password.

Also, you can call your provider for a password reset.
