Recently my Thunderbird started asking for my passwords every time I opened it (I have multiple Hotmail accounts). After I added the passwords it would keep asking for them over and over again (they were ALL correct). I have now uninstalled and re-installed the latest version of Thunderbird and only added 1 account back in and it still keeps doing the same. The password is visible and correct in the saved passwords section. I am now having to use another client (Outlook,which works correctly, but isnt a patch on Thunderbird) Running MACOS 12.7.3 Any help would be greatly appreciated.

UPDATE: After persevering with this for a few days and taking it slowly, it seemed to settle down. I have not had any issues for about three days now.

Spoke too soon. Worked fine for just one account. Once I added the other 3 accounts I have this popping up every 5-10 seconds.

And now it keeps asking for passwords again ! So the OAuth Authentication just makes it ask for the passwords in a different way, but hasnt solved the problem
