Can't send or receive email
Can't send or receive email since Telstra changed authentication. After an hour on the phone with Telstra they claims settings are correct as I can access through webmail, but not through Thunderbird.
In privacy and settings, Saved password ,Under saved logins nothing appears, ( I did "remove all" as instructed by Telstra but we can't figure our how to add it back.)
Can anyone instruct me how to fix this? Many thanks I appreciate your assistance

What are the settings in outgoing server (SMTP) shown as? (I do not have a great deal of faith in Telstra support. They told me my problem was with Outlook and I did not even have the software installed.)
There was a time that Telstra was using Microsoft Hotmail/Outlook.com for new Telstra mail accounts and even transferred some of their customers there. Was your email one of them?
The outgoing server is smtp.telstra.com As far as I know the email hasn't been transferred When I try and open thunderbird I get a message saying " Sending of password for user did not succeed. Mail server mail.bigond.com responded. Authentication failed"
Thank you for your help
