Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

TB version 2.0.0.18 (20081125)
i have 7 email accounts with my internet service provider.  in the last 2 days after i returned from  a 5-day trip abroad when i did not access my e-mail accounts, my passwords no longer work.  however,  i can access the accounts by using the ISP's webmail service with the passwords.  so i guess TB has a password bug.   when i key in & enter the  password, i get the ff "sending password did not succeed .  mail server pope.casema.nl responded: authentication failed.  the same password works with casema webmail.  

however, my mac email account using the same smtp does not (yet) exhibit
the same problem.
