I’ve wanted so hard to switch to thunderbird completely. My email is outlook and has the Authenticator set up for login, which has caused me issues adding my inbox. I found an add on but it had a few that I think was monthly.

I am not familiar with outlook but this might be help

Thanks for replying, I ended up figuring this out like two days ago. Turns out you have to generate an app password from the security options on Microsoft’s website.

I think thats one option, the OAuth way explained in the link should be the more modern one.

Would app passwords work?

When it gets to signing in it fails and when I set it up with exchange it wants a paid add on. I think it had something to do with an owl. It was a couple months ago.
