Please assist, the email program thunderbird on my PC do not recognise the password when I need to sign in to receive, send and review my emails. It keep on saying it is the wrong password. I have tried to get into emails via GMAIL itself , and that worked and accepted the password, on my mobile phone it also recognised the password when prompt on GMAIL app. But if I use that same password for my email adress on thunderbird it does not work..... All emails from gmail adress goes throug thunderbird and that is how I use it on my office PC.
