Since Thunderbird updated to 38.2.0 it will not send the password. It connects to the email server but does nothing after that. I cannot get any mail. I am able to send mail with no problem. I am using GMX.COM as an email server.

I had to reload Thunderbird to get it to work.

I had to download and reload Thunderbird to get it to work. That solved the problem.
