To resolve the Gmail OAuth login issue in Thunderbird

Enable IMAP in Gmail settings under Forwarding and POP/IMAP. Allow Third-Party Access in Google Account > Security. Use an App Password if you have two-factor authentication enabled. Clear Cache of Thunderbird and your browser, then try again. Update both Thunderbird and your default browser. If the issue remains, try using a different default browser or reinstall Thunderbird.
