Check that your username in account settings is your full email address.
Thunderbird usually assumes when setting up an account that only the
part of the address before the "@" is required as a username.

Hi
I've just started using Thunderbird 8.0 with my work email (and my
work PC) and I want to add my personal gmail account too.
So far I have done:
Tools> Account Settings> Add Mail Account
I filled in my Name, Email Address and Password (these work with
browser based Gmail)
IMAP selected
Create Account
Error Message "User name or password invalid" "Configuration could
not be verified - is the user name or password wrong?"
I've read in other posts that Unlock Captcha (https://
accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha) works but this didnt help
me. I've been to the Gmail> Mail Settings> Forwarding and POP/IMAP>
Enable IMAP and this didn't help.
Have I missed anything? Is there any way around this problem to get my
email working?
Additional info:
Windows 7
Thunderbird 8.0
