After update to 60.0 some passwords show to be wrong?

[Dirki]

After updating today to TB 60.0 the passwords of some e-mail accounts are shown to be wrong. What could I do to correct it?

[tanstaafl]

I can't reproduce that problem. However, there is a known bug where perfectly good passwords will fail 100% of the time once a hard connection failure occurs. Usually this problem is account specific but its possible that if it occurs for one account it can effect every account.

The workaround is to delete the saved passwords, exit and restart (because the deleted passwords are still in memory) and enter them again when prompted. I suggest you try that.

Thank you!

Alright, I will try it. Where / how can I delete those passwords?

[tanstaafl]

tools -> options -> security -> passwords -> saved passwords -> remove all .

[Dirki]

Thank you very much!

Don't I need to delete only those passwords of the accounts shown to have wrong passwords? Or do I really need to delete even the passwords of those accounts still working?

[tanstaafl]

I'd try just the accounts that aren't working. Its pretty unusual that you need to delete the passwords for all of the accounts.

[Dirki]

Yes, I would think so, too. But this "remove all" sounded like deleting all of the passwords.

Many thanks

[tanstaafl]

Just to be clear, "remove all" removes all the passwords for all of the accounts. If you want to remove them just for selected accounts select them and use "remove" instead.

Alright, thank you very much!

When I get that message I know they are not wrong, dismiss it because it it is probably a server problem, wait the allotted "Check for messages every xx minutes" setting, or try Get Messages a few minutes later and get my mail.

Is it an imap account? Or pop?

[Dirki]

They are pop accounts.
