Yes your .gif looks like the dead window I get.

I have always been able to get an email setup in thunderbird without all
the extra effort.

I did go to gmail using chrome on win xp pro laptop and enable (was
disabled) gmail to allow less secure apps but that did not help.

Why is thnderbird considered less secure ?

So on new my phone I had zero problems setting up the gmail for this
account. New phone but same account but I unfortunately changed the
email password for this account when I got the new phone. Now all this
drama.

Will Win 7 and Thunderbird there screw with me too ?

So oath2 is the only way now ?

Why do we all have to be tech gurus to use our PCs and phones etc
??????? Such stupidity on the Google's part ! Or is all Thunderbird's
fault ?
Oh well !

Thanks for you assistance !
Next I set up a filter to delete Gooooo Guy email upon receipt.
