Can't Get Thunderfird to install
When going through the set up, I enter my email address (Xfinity) and my email password. I then get to this part where I have to sign into Comcast/Xfinity. Regardless of how many times I enter my username it will not take it and keeps circling back to the username entry. This is getting very frustrating.
Can you help me?

Have you logged on to webmail account and switched on the option to allow third party email clients access to your account? See info at the link below. https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/third-party-email-access
Turn your access to third-party email programs on or off in Xfinity Email To provide our customers with additional security, we added a new checkbox to the Xfinity Email website. This may affect your ability to manage your Xfinity Email (Comcast.net) through third-party programs like Outlook, Google, Apple Mail, Thunderbird, and more.
