I had the change my PW for my Earthlink email account but cannot find where to update the password in Thunderbird. Can you direct me? Thunderbird opens but challenges me for my PW.

Chosen solution

Options-Security-Passwords-Saved Passwords Click Show Passwords Right click password and select Edit

The challenge dialog should have a choice to re-enter the new password also.
