Question about using Thunderbird with Gmail












0














I am currently setting up Thunderbird to work with my Gmail account. I'm fairly certain I have all the settings entered properly, but I keep getting the "Enter Your Password" window, and then after a few times of entering my password, I get an error message. I've had this same issue trying to set up other email accounts with other clients on the same computer. Am I missing something? A Windows 10 thng? A firewall of some type?
