Thanks for 102! Installed fine here, MX21/KDE. A couple of extensions are not yet compatible, but I guess that comes with the territory. The extension I use the most, Compact Headers, works.

Installed and working fine here. Just the one longstanding problem - the calendar will not print in colour.

MX21 KDE, no problems so far, extensions working. Great success!

Had to engage my magic skills to reinstall Systray-X

Hello

Thanks for taking the time to prepare your package. For me, unfortunately, after the update, all accounts stopped downloading new messages.
After starting the program, the same error is displayed for all accounts. I can run any command in terminal to get necessary info if you need one.

Regards

You might check what your email provider is requiring. The error image you posted seems to refer to the authentication method not being correct.

My email provider, at&t recently required me to start using a secure email key for thunderbird. at&t generates it and it gets plugged into thunderbird and it is different from what I use if I just use their website for email. To get the secure email password to work the first time, I also had to switch to Oath2 authentication in security settings. With at&t, after getting it to work the first time, security could be set to Normal Password and it continues to work.

My notes are for me and at&t. Your email provider settings may be something else. - mike
