My email provider reported the my account could be hacked and was sending a lot of emails. Because of that account was blocked and change of passowrd was forced. I did that. Access and sending emails via web browser works.

Unfortunately Thunderbird continously reports that email account is blocked. Nothing works (no incoming or outgoing mails) via Thunderbird.

What is leading you to believe Thunderbird thinks you are blocked? Are you getting an error message? Post it word for word or provide a screenshot of the error message.

There was a error massage/pop up from Tunderbird. I had it on few computers where I have Thunderbird installed for my account.

But it is solved now. I did nothing, I guess overnight processing was needed.
