I have somehow logged out of Thunderbird on my desktop computer. Need to reset password. But since I can't log in, I can't receive your password link. Will see if I can do it through my phone.

Hi summersde, what kind of password is it that you need to reset?

If it is the master password you enter so that Thunderbird can connect to your mail services, that isn't something you would get an email about, it's purely a local setting. See: Protect your Thunderbird passwords with a Primary Password.
