Thunderbird keeps saying it can't verify any of my email accounts, that either the username/ password is wrong. They are both correct, what should I do?

For the past 4 days I haven't been able to connect to my email through Thunderbird. It says its connecting to the server but then just stops. I tried removing my accounts and re-adding them but now it says the password/ username can't be verified and is wrong. I can log on to my email through Firefox, chrome, and explore just fine. What can I do?

I think you may have better results by going to Tools|Options|Security|Passwords->Saved Passwords and deleting all instances of the affected password. It'll ask you to re-enter them when needed.
