Authentication with email server earthlink.net
Updated Mozilla and now get this message ; The server does not support the selected authentication method. Please change the 'Authentication method' in the 'Account Settings | Server settings'.

You would have to check your server settings for that account.
you would need to post information showing what server settings you are currently using. Menu icon > Help > More TRoubleshooting Information Under 'Mail and News Accounts section. Copy all the data and post the information into this forum question OR Post images showing: Account Settings > Server Settings for incoming Account Settings > Outgoing Server (SMTP) > select account/email address Post image showing settings
But I believe these are the settings you should be using.
Earthlink.net (EarthLink) IMAP Server
- Server name: imap.earthlink.net
- port 143
- Connection SEcurity: none
- Username Your full email address
- Authentication Method: Normal Password
- password Your Earthlink.net password
Earthlink.net (EarthLink) POP Server
- Server Name: pop.earthlink.net
- port 110
- Connection SEcurity: none
- Username Your full email address
- Authentication Method: Normal Password
- password Your Earthlink.net password
Earthlink.net (EarthLink) SMTP Server
- Server name: smtpauth.earthlink.net
- port 587
- Connection Security: STARTTLS
- Username Your full email address
- Authentication Method: Normal Password
- password Your Earthlink.net password
To use the above insecure settings - You may discover the 'Authentication Method' for incoming and outgoing may need to be 'Password, transmitted insecurely'

It seems some sites report you can use a secure setting, so use a secure setting rather than the original default insecure settings I previously mentioned.
Earthlink.net (EarthLink) IMAP Server
- Server name: imap.earthlink.net
- port 993
- Connection SEcurity: SSL/TLS
- Username Your full email address
- Authentication Method: Normal Password
- password Your Earthlink.net password
Earthlink.net (EarthLink) POP Server
- Server Name: pop.earthlink.net
- port 993
- Connection SEcurity: SSL/TLS
- Username Your full email address
- Authentication Method: Normal Password
- password Your Earthlink.net password
So really it is important to know what settings you are currently using in order to know what part is currently not being accepted.
