I changed the password used to access my gmail account. Thunderbird is still using the old password to access the account. How do I change the password that Thunderbird is using. The last time this happened I ended up creating a new Thunderbird account for gmail. Creating the new Thunderbird account at least let me enter the new password. I really don't want to have three Thunderbird accounts for the same gmail account.

Please do not respond with suggestions about using Password Manager. I do not use it and do not intend to start. I looked and none of my Thunderbird passwords are displayed there. All I want to do is change the password in Thunderbird. If Thunderbird does not have a feature allowing you to change it's passwords, one should be added.

The link posted by Christ1 gives WRONG instructions. In Thunderbird 24.4.0, it's: Tools, Options, Security, Passwords, Saved Passwords

You have to say you actually want it to SHOW you the passwords, and then you can delete them. Once you actually check for mail, it will tell you it failed, and then you have the option to enter a new password. WAY too complicated. Time to put the password, and the ability to change it, in the mail account options.

That doesn't really help and isn't what I want to do. Saved Thunderbird passwords can be viewed from tools>options>Security>Saved Passwords. The dialog that this opens displays all mailbox and smtp accounts know to Thunderbird and the passwords associated with each. I want to change these, not passwords saved in Firefox.

I have no idea how this is related to Firefox.
Simply follow the instructions and you'll be good to go.

The saved passwords are the only email related passwords in Thunderbird. If those are not what you are looking for you are not going to find it.

There is the master password to protect the email passwords but that has noting to do with your gmail password.

Use the already posted method of removing and replacing the saved email passwords and enter your new gmail password when prompted.

This is all good until I get to the box that says "enter password to your account" While it allows me to enter my new gmail password, there is NO checkbox telling Thunderbird to save the new password.
