Hi,

I did a little test without finding any problems. But then I remembered that thunderbird is not always getting the correct paste of passwords or using the right characters when sending it... Does your password contains characters like ß?

That was the reason of the problem an user was having just a couple of weeks ago, when unable to login from thunderbird but ok from webmail and other phone e-mail clients.

Can you check that?
