Three GMAIL accounts on my Thunderbird (91.4.0 64bit) desktop client, one account quit working.
I've changed nothing, and suddenly one of the GMAIL accounts quit downloading/uploading. I can access the three accounts directly via the Gmail postoffice so it's not a change of password.
I cleared out all the contents in the Thunderbird password manager. Ran all three accounts in Thunderbird had to reenter password and they uploaded/downloaded except the one that keeps getting an error.
See attached clip of error message.
What's the fix?

The first picture indicates the authentication method set in TB is 'normal password'. Change it in Account Settings to OAuth2 for the incoming and outgoing, remove passwords from Saved Passwords in Preferences, accept cookies in the same section, restart TB, enter the account password in the OAuth window.

Yes it seems to be working again on all accounts. I changed Tools/Account Settings/Server Settings/Security Settings/Authentication Method to OAuth2 on each account and all three are working again.
Thanks.
