Thunderbird don't remember gmail passwords
Hello
Version 128.5.2 esr.
After starting the program, entering the password and checking the "check box" MT does not remember the passwords for the email account and Google. The password manager is empty. After restarting it is the same.

As for the Google account, it's only for the calendar (not IMAP), but it's mainly about another IMAP account, where there's a regular password, and despite the fact that I check the checkbox, it doesn't remember the password. And I didn't write that the "checkbox" doesn't appear.

You only see a checkbox to store passwords if the authentication method for the account is 'normal password', which is incorrect for gmail. Change it to OAuth2 for the incoming and outgoing servers.
