O365 Folder Sync: TBSync

Eric Gombrich

I've installed TBSync with Thunderbird and my O365 calendar is now syncing.

However, my email subfolders are not fully updating.

I have a # of subfolders I've created in O365 but they aren't appearing in TBSync in order to choose them to sync in Thunderbird. I am getting some (what I would call 'standard') subfolders in TBSync to choose such as Contact, Calendar, Tasks, and some other email accounts I have 'sync'd' into O365, but none of the actual email subfolders for the O365 account itself (i.e. 2024 Financials).

In Thunderbird, the only folders I see to sync (Synchronization & Storage > Advanced)are: Inbox, Draft, Sent, and Trash

What am I doing wrong or missing?

Thanks for the reply sfhowes.

It only shows Sent and Trash folders. And this is AFTER clicking subscribe and refresh. And then even trying Unsubscribe + refresh and then Subscribe + Refresh.

TbSync is for calendars and contacts only. If you right-click the account in the Folder Pane, Subscribe..., Refresh, do you see a list of the subfolders that can be subscribed?

I figured it out. Was a setting / config on the O365 side.

Thanks
