I have changed my password on my web email and now Thunderbird is unable to get emails. I have removed the old password, quit Thunderbird and restarted expecting to be asked for the new password, but this did not happen but got a message that sending password did not succeed. How do I update the new password in Thunderbird?

How many occurrences of your old password did you find and remove? There are usually at least two that matter, for incoming and outgoing.
