how to send messages without entering password every time

Hi Friends, I'm a first time Thunderbird user. I have 4 accounts -- 2 through my ISP, and 2 through a personal server. When I send mail from the ISP accounts, it goes right out. But when I send mail from my server accounts, it always asks me for a password.

For a while at first, it was asking for the password to download mail. That eventually stopped, but it's still asking for it when I send mail.

I found these instructions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configuration-options-sending-messages#w_specify-the-outgoing-smtp-server-used-to-send-messages-for-the-selected-identity

But I can't find the location: "Tools > Account Settings > <account name> > Manage Identities > <identity> > Settings"

I did find Account Settings > account > SMTP Settings

but there's no field for the password. I thought maybe I had entered the password wrong, but I can't find how to re-set it.

Can someone tell me how to double-check the password? Or if there's another solution, I'd appreciate if someone could explain.

Thank you very much  :-)

Oh, I just found Manage Identities! But it still doesn't provide a place to change or re-set the password.

You can tell Thunderbird to remember the password. Pay attention when you get the password prompt.

Can someone tell me how to double-check the password?

As of Thunderbird v45 you can also directly edit account passwords Thunderbird has remembered. At the top right of the Thunderbird window, click the menu button > Options > Security > Passwords tab > Saved Passwords > Show Passwords. Right-click an entry to edit an existing password.

Thanks for your comments!

I prefer not to use password managers.

I just don't understand why it remembers the passwords for 2 of the accounts, but not the other 2.

I can't find anything different about they way they are set up.

I don't understand how that is related to your question.

As said before, if you want Thunderbird to remember your account password, you'll need to tell it to do so.

When I first set up all the accounts, I made sure that "Remember password" was checked.

When I send mail from these 2 accounts, and it prompts me for a password, there's a checkbox that says something like "use password manager to remember the password". So that's how it's related.
