I have Thunderbird 68.12.1 on two PCs and when I open Thundberbird on each, it repeatedly asks me for passwords for all 6 of my IMAP email accounts, even though the passwords are correct. None of the email accounts will log in, so I cant send or receive emails on either of my PC's. It just started doing this this morning, and is happening on both PCs. I have been using the same version Thunderbird to access these accounts for many years without a problem before today.

The error message I am getting is: "Login to server imap.dotster.com with username xxxx@xxxx.com failed" with 3 options "Retry" "Enter New Password" or "Cancel"

I can access the same IMAP email accounts using the same passwords using Aquamail on my Galaxy Phone without a problem. So I know the issue is with Thunderbird logging into the email server, and not the passwords or email server.

Help would be greatly appreciated as I use my PCs to send receive emails more than my phone.

Vahaolana nofidina

Now having the same problem using Aquamail. Apparently the issue is on the server level with dotster.

Sorry, nevermind : )
