Support authentication with SCRAM-SHA-256

Is it possible to use authentication with SCRAM-SHA-256 for SMTP and IMAP? I tried with the Thunderbird version 102.10.1 but failed to get that authentication. It doesn't seem to support SCRAM-SHA-256 from the error message. Could you please help me to solve this problem?

Thanks for the information. I have already read it. I wanted to confirm the progress because it wasn't updated for a few years. My understanding is that Thunderbird doesn't support SCRAM-SHA-256 at the moment. Is this right?
