I have a new phone, and I can't get my email on it without the email password. I've had the account so long I can't remember the password; Thunderbird just retrieves my email. Now I want it on the phone. Is there a way to get my password out of thunderbird so I can put it in my phone?

Try this: - click 'settings' and 'privacy&security' - click saved passwords and then show passwords - highlight the row of your account and rightclick and a password menu should appear where you can copy password
