Thunderbird email account setup for Gmail will not accept my password for the account
I installed Thunderbird and set up my Outlook account with no problem. However, every time I try to add my Gmail account I get an error message "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username, or password." This happens whether I try to set up the account using either Thunderbird's automatic configuration by doing a manual configuration. Can anyone help? I can log into Gmail on the web with this email address and password with no problem.
