My internet provider IInet has recently changed to The Messaging Company to provide email handling. I have changed over the messaging company as recommended but now find I cannot access Thunderbird as the password has been changed by the new company. Is there away of recovering my account? as I prefer the thunderbird application. As I cannot access my emails addressed to stewm@iinet.net.au any communication should be sent to my Gmail account stewmasters40@gmail.com

You would need to get a password from this messaging company whom ever they are. Thunderbird only stores the password you provide.
