Timing out connecting to pop.gmail.com

Thunderbird was open when my Ubuntu Unity 24.04.1 LTS system abruptly powered off. When I restarted the system, Thunderbird first downloaded a ton of duplicate Emails from pop.gmail.com. Once I cleared those out, Thunderbird now times out attempting to reconnect. I am running the .deb (not the snap) version of Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (64-bit). I'm sure something got corrupted and I'd like to get that straightened out. Thanks in advance.

By the way, I do have both the Cardbook and GCalTab addons which read my contacts and calendar entries from Google just fine. Only the Gmail portion is FUBAR.
