I recently changed my password on my account which is forwarded from an stny.rr.com email address. When I changed my password I began receiving the following errors and pop ups;

"Sending of password for user BLANK did not succeed. Mail server BLANK responded: Authentication failed.

Followed by.

Login failed. Login to server.

Which gives me the options to retry, enter a new password or cancel.

I definitely know my new password and the other two devices that this account is on seem to be unaffected. They haven't even prompted me for the new password. The device that I actually changed the password on however is not allowing me to login in.

What shall I do?

Assuming 'device' is a computer running Thunderbird, you cannot change an account password via Thunderbird. You'll have to delete the password Thunderbird has remembered, when your account password has changed.

In order to change the account password, you'll need to login to your account via webmail. If in doubt, ask your email provider. Note, Thunderbird is not your email provider.
