download the new Mozilla Thunderbird 115.5.0

I'm going to add this information to my post as well.(the following are descriptions of context, showing the latency)ġ. I have spent entirely too much time on this, but I finally got it to work. The important thing is that you need to have STARTTLS for connection security and Normal Password for authentication method. I don't know if they have different settings for other countries. For the other two I had to actually remove the account to get the server settings to work. You would think you could just remove the password, restart, and put the new one in and it would work fine. It the universe isn't being evil, you should be able to at this point. Input the app password you created in step 2.įourth, try to send an email. It should ask you for the password and also ask if you want Thunderbird to save the password. This is the password you'll use for your email. On the same page you then create an app password. Second, turn on two-factor verification with Microsoft.

I restarted my computer after this to ensure I didn't have anything running in the background. I hope this is helpful for anyone else with this problem.įirst, go into Thunderbird settings and delete the saved password for the email account. One more thing: These are the steps I took.

This isn't documented anywhere that I could find. The first time I sent an email I had to verify both factors, but I was able to send a second email without any problems. Solved: I had to turn on two factor verification on the email account.

One times out, and the other repeatedly asks if I want to enter a new password, but never allows me to enter it (it just attempts to send the message again).ĭoes anyone have any idea on how I can fix this problem before I just give up and used another email program? Now, I cannot seem to send email from two of my Microsoft accounts.

At first, I couldn't download POP mail, but I figured that out. My installation of Thunderbird upgraded last night from 102 to 115, automatically.
