With Thunderbird, trying to access my Gmail email, I get "Sending of PSW did not succeed, "Username and PSW not accepted." Similar message when sending email. I have not changed anything from previous use. Unfortunately I do not know my Gmail password and cannot retrieve it because of above problem.

This problem solved, as I was able to access Gmail and change the password. However, see similar problem with outgoing email, posted @ 30 mnutes ago. Thanks.
