Re: Thunderbird causing legal problems

It's a problem with the interface chair-keyboard(alias the user).

The change the password in my case is allowed by account settings 
<<via>> web.

I don`t hear the posibility of change mutiples times the password via 
TB, only via account settings of ISP or calling directly to the ISP.

If you type bad the user/password, TB only retry if you do click 
multiples times to the error dialog, or you don't change the password.

If you change the password(via ISP or web), you have to delete the 
previous password before to retrieve the mails.
