For over a year when I start Thunderbird I get "Login to server pop3.frontiernet.net" failed and it asks me for a new password. I have no clue. I have no clue where I get that.

Years back everything worked fine and I had a long history of email saved, then it all went to hell. Frontier mail hooked up with Yahoo!mail. A Version change with Thunderbird caused it to stop connecting to my [edited] @frontiernet.net account for quite a while then it was working again but started giving me the Login Failed and asking me for a new password until it would finally connect without my having given it anything. What should I do?
