Re: [Thunderbird] Keeps asking for password
Tb is retaining your username/password and if it is Gmail then Google IMO is to blame.
On occasion I have that issue with my ISP. Rare but it does happen. I do not change anything and let the ISP clear up the issue.

For pop3 I was asked twice also. It is standard.
Once when sending and again when receiving email.
Just click the box to have Tb Password manager remember them.

Could also be a server problem from your ISP. |

I would open up the password manager in Tb and delete the username/password for both incoming/outgoing to reset it.
Send a dummy email to trigger the PM and reenter the info.
Password may have been corrupted from an update.
