I suddenly could not send email anymore through Thunderbird. I consulted my provider (KPN, The Netherlands) and they finally pointed to Thunderbird as the cause of this. The message i get when i want to set the password (as suggested during set-up), is attached as Popup after trying to send email _ Screenshot from 2021-04-07 21-32-25.png The settings are in E-mail settings Screenshot from 2021-04-07 21-10-33.png

Your picture shows no authentication on the outgoing server. Change it to 'normal password', restart TB, and see if sending works.
