Thunderbird keeps asking for a Google Account for no reason

Since I've upgrade Thunderbird to 128.1.1esr (Debian GNU/Linux trixie/testing) Thunderbird keeps asking to authenticate to a Google Account.

I've search on Google how to stop it, but every results was about Gmail account.

I don't use Gmail on Thunderbird, my only mail account that is configured on Thunderbird is a Microsoft account using Owl Extension, and everything is OK with my mail account, it is working properly, this is not my problem.

The issue is that every time I open Thunderbird it asks for a Google Account, and when I close the window (because I don't see why should I enter a Google Account), after some few minutes it asks for it again.
