Did you delete the old password from Tools/Options/Security/Passwords/Saved Passwords, restart TB, and enter the new one when prompted?

If the authentication on the IMAP account is OAuth2, there will also be an oauth:// token in Saved Passwords.

I deleted the old password, restarted TB, typed in the new password (which works when logging into gmail on web) but still got the error message: Login to server imap.googlemail.com with username saklaspaa@gmail.com failed
