cannot add new mail account in Thunderbird ( win 7)
I can setup the account on other comps but not on mine. Suppose port numbers provided ( 143 for incoming and 26 SMTP ) are used by other application
Are you trying to setup pop or imap?
IMAP. Everything goes perfectly until it comes to creating the account he last step. Then after 5 min trying it says - password or username incorrect
But I have set up the same account on 3 other computers? different vervions of windows and Thunderbird) with no problem. Tried to downgrade the Thunderbird but it did not help
Open Thunderbird > Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings > User Name:, make sure you put the FULL email address in that section.
Thanks
I have checked that many times . Strange is I have done this on 3 other comps and all works except mine. There should be some conflict with ports may be
