I changed the password on the email of my Internet email service provider. I verified I can connect to that using Webmail and my phone with the new password. I then changed the password on Thunderbird to align with this. However now I cannot connect to my smpt service provider email using Thunderbird.

When I try to download email I get the message "<my email address> :Host contacted, sending login information ... I am using Thunderbird beta Version 122.0b1 (64-bit)

Additional info: I also get a prompt which says: "Login to server <servername> failed "Retry" "Enter New Password" "Cancel"

However the system will not allow me to select the "Enter New Password" option.
