I use Thunderbird with several email addresses, two of them AOL. Thunderbird had popups upon opening for both my AOL addresses, asking for the password. One email address this went fine for, but the other, Thunderbird will not take the password. I just tried logging into AOL's webmail and the password works fine, but Thunderbird will not accept it. Why did Thunderbird randomly make me re-input these passwords, and why is it only accepting the valid password for one account?

Check that the authentication method is OAuth2 for the incoming and outgoing servers, check that cookies are accepted in Preferences/Privacy & Security, remove the passwords from Saved Passwords, restart TB, enter the account password in the OAuth window when asked.
