I have been using ~10 email accounts in thunderbird for years now, ~8 are gmail and recently one of them wanted me to re-authenticate. Every one of the gmail accounts is configured in the same way; I'm using SSL/TLS with Oauth2.

So when I open TB, I get a popup screen for me to log into gmail with the addy pre-entered. I hit next and I am returned to the same page with the email blank. I dont get asked for password, i don't get told that it's an invalid email or that the account doesn't exist. I'm stuck in an endless loop.

I can log into the account through a web browser and dont get any notifications of issues or concerning access attempts. The other 7 gmail accounts continue to work. How do I fix this?

Are cookies enabled in Thunderbird? They need to be.
