Gyula, in duplicate bug #1854440, you wrote that version 60.3.0 in Ubuntu 20.04 isn't working. There is no such version in Ubuntu 20.04. If you're using the official Ubuntu repositories and have updated your system, you should have version 68.2.2 (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/1:68.2.2+build1-0ubuntu1).

This has been fixed upstream and is tracked by https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1592407. [Test Case] In a clean environment, launch thunderbird and add an existing gmail account. Thunderbird should auto-detect all the relevant parameters, and then an external webview should pop up to prompt for your e-mail address (it's not auto-filled, that's a separate issue that's also known upstream) and your password. After filling this in and authorizing thunderbird to access your e-mails, your account should be set up and thunderbird should start fetching e-mails from your inbox. Instead it fails to authenticate and displays the authentication pop up again. [Regression Potential] Low, as this is an official upstream point release that addresses only this regression (see https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/60.9.1/releasenotes/). The fix is minimal and self-contained (https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-esr60/rev/56b6d1b50647143c25efe642b37b02f65f9c4343), if the bug is indeed confirmed to be fixed then it should be safe. [Original Bug Description] When I use Thunderbird, it keeps failing to connect with my Google (Gmail) accounts. It keeps asking for authentication via the web portal, I seem to successfully give Thunderbird authentication, but no messages come in and, soon afterwards, the web portal comes up asking for login again. I am using OAuth2 (so this ( https://support.mozilla.org/en- US/questions/1201406 ) doesn't help.
