I created second email account (seaoftime@comcast.net) with a Password but when I try to get mail and enter password, it says "Sending of Password did not succeed. Mail server mail.comcast.net responded: login failed". What am I doing wrong?

Have you logged on to the webmail account using a browser and enabled either Pop or Imap forwarding for that email address?

Have you created a mail account in Thunderbird that uses the chosen webmail forwarding option?

Password - make sure caps lock is not switched - it must be the same password you use to access the webmail account.

check: Tools > account Settings > Server Settings username = full email address
