Since the new version of TB 38.1 I have not been able to pop my email on mindspring.com. I am getting error messages.

This started last week and when using Thunderbird it will not pop mindspring.com or earthlink.net. It works on my phone, outlook and my ipad, but not in Thurderbird. The settings are correct and I have tried removing the account and reinstalling it on my laptop. I continue to get these messages. "Sending of password for user xxxx@mindspring.com did not succeed. Mail server pop.mindspring.com responded: Authentication failed". When I reenter the password I get this message "Login to server pop.mindspring.com failed." I am stymied as I have to read the email on a remote PC.

I'd rather look for a new email provider. Any provider not supporting TLS today is just not acceptable. But that's up to you.

now it appears to be working.

Then mark this thread as 'Solved' please. Thank you.
