I have 3 gmail accounts on thunderbird. one stopped working a few months ago. attempts to re-add have failed even tho I set the same server settings as on the other two accounts.

my hotmail account asks for a new password every once in a while. if I ignore and restart thunderbird this goes away for a while. tried to update with the new Oauth2 and now that account isn't working either. can't send mail. tried to delete and re-add, no good. have shut down and started again - no change
