On opening thunderbird i get the following message superiimposed on the inbox. " This pOp3 server does not seem to support encrypted passwords.If you have just set up this account try changing to Password ransmitted insecurely", as the authentication method in the account settings server settings. If it used to work and now suddenly fails, this is a common scenario how someone could steal your password."

I'm in latter category having not changed the server settings. Whay do I do

The password for the POP server is clearly set to Encrypted. Your provider is telling you they do not support this authentication method. Get the correct setting from your provider and make the needed change.

I found this page with settings but I do not know if it is current. https://help2.talktalk.co.uk/tiscali-email-setup Using port 110 is slightly outdated also. The usual authentication method is Normal Password. Again, confirm with your provider.
