Trying to follow instructions from another thread to get hotmail account to work in Thunderbird again
Trying to configure Thunderbird to work with hotmail again. It stopped working a few days ago. Following the 6-step instructions at the end of the thread on this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1436296
At step 3 I don't have OAuth2 in the drop-down menu. Just
No authentication Normal password Encrypted password Kerberos / GSSAPI NTLM
With OAuth2 selected in the places it *is* available, I just get Host contacted, sending login information... ad infinitum.
How do I fix it? Thanks.
Thunderbird 115.15.0 on Windows 8.1

After each server name change you need to restart Thunderbird to reset the authentication methods on offer. Oauth is only available for a very limited number of server names and for hotmail/ouylook office SMTP servers it is only available for smtp.office365.com. So that has to be the outgoing server name for office365, hotmail, outlook, MSN live etc. Regardless of what Microsoft are saying.
It's a bit (very) confusing but after a bit of trial and error it is now working. Thank you.
