I am using Mac OS Sierra. I have an email that I am trying to send via Thunderbird. When I click on SEND, I get a popup that asks for my Gmail name. After clicking NEXT, nothing happens.

How do I get my email sent? Why is this happening?

I have that version of Thunderbird, so, apparently, it is not fixed on my laptop version.

Could you try an experiment? Lower the resolution of your display and see if it makes any difference with the TB menus and dialogs, including this one for gmail. There is an issue with some versions of OS X.
