I believe my current problem is related to the earlier question I asked. See https://tinyurl.com/mr2rye3b for background. I am now being required to enter a username and password for the newsgroup, everytime I start Thunderbird. This was not true before I had to start from scratch and re-setup Thunderbird. And it hasn't been true since I completed my new setup ... until yesterday. When Thunderbird starts, I get the attached. Sometimes the same demand for logon credentials appears twice. I don't want to enter any logon credentials when I run Thunderbird - as it was before. Is there a way to avoid this?
