After each login via the Web frontend, Thunderbird is blocked from access

Real-time notifications may not work
I'm having the same problem. Hoping to hear back from support on this.
Thunderbird Desktop (for Windows) is no longer accepting the primary password for Mailbox.org. This feature was working before, and I suspect the problem has something to do with the introduction of email app passwords. I changed my main/primary Mailbox password to see if that would fix it, and the problem still remains. I am unable to access my Mailbox.org email, calendar, and tasks on Thunderbird as of the time of this writing.
I wrote in earlier to the team about my concerns regarding this being a possibility. I was worried that forcing users to use email app passwords for third party applications would nuke Thunderbird for desktop's functionality (ie, syncing EVERYTHING - email, calendar, tasks, etc). Thunderbird mobile works fine with email app passwords, as that application doesn't have contacts, calendar, etc syncing capability. But the desktop version does.
If (and I haven't tested this) the only way to access Mailbox.org using Thunderbird desktop is to create an email app password for it, then how will users be able to access the other (non-email) syncing features of Thunderbird desktop?

Is Login 2.0 already enabled for your account?
See https://kb.mailbox.org/en/private/account-article/how-to-use-two-factor-authentication-2fa
Have you tried to create app passwords for CardDAV (contacts), CalDAV (calendar) and Webdav/OX Drive (Files)?
