User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/3.6.13

just wait about 5 minutes at the logon prompt where you are supposed to type in your thunderbird password.  When you finally try, your attempt will get you nothing and, ultimately, it seems, that you need to force quit Thunderbird and start over.  The password should be able to be entered at any time after the prompt comes up, but that never happens if you, say, have to walk away after starting up Thunderbird.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.start thunderbird
2.do not enter password - wait 5 minutes
3.try to enter password now and you can't get in - have to start over
Actual Results:  
cannot login to THunderbird

Expected Results:  
that you have logged into Thunderbird after you enter your password
