How do I fix this
I have two accounts, identically configured. One gives me the error:
Sending of password for user pcs43 did not succeed. Mail server inbound.att.net responded: (#AUTH204) Service is not available; please try again later.
The other gives:
Sending of password for user redsboy3 did not succeed. Mail server inbound.att.net responded: (#AUTH002) Incorrect username or password.
I don't think the password is wrong on the second account, but it might be. If so, I would expect the same error as the first account.
These were working fine until a couple of weeks ago. I had a similar episode a year or so ago, but it healed itself. ATT has been absolutely no help at all, as I've come to expect from them

Fixed problem by deleting and re-establishing the email accounts. Apparently, when some of the inbound settings are changed, the profile location doesn't update properly, so that the correct info doesn't get sent. This may be a bug in Thunderbird.

I have changed back to bellsouth from ATT.
Now I get these messages: Sending of password for user pcs43 did not succeed. Mail server mail.bellsouth.net responded: (#MBR1236)
Sending of password for user redsboy3 did not succeed. Mail server mail.bellsouth.net responded: (#MBR1236)
However, if I keep trying, I can sometimes get through, unlike before with ATT.
have you tried changing or removing your anti virus. Sounds like it might be the root cause to me.
Disabled A/V. Didn't help. Thanks for the suggestion, though!
