Hello, five days ago Thunderbird suddenly stopped syncing my emails, giving an error about missing passwords (and in fact the password list was empty). Then I've tried to remove all my accounts and add them again, but this was not possible. When I put my account data in the panel everything seem to work but the account is not added.

Thank you, Loredana

Is this a yahoo or sky account? They have had trouble for several days now.

Hello, thank you for the reply! The account is hosted on Dreamhost and it is working on Mail and on all the other computers where I've tried intalling it. Do you have other suggestions?

What exactly have you done and what are the error messages you see. ARe you using any sort of Anti virus or other security software? What about a cproxy?
