logon failure
I have Thunderbird software version 128.2.3esr (64-bit). I have 5 email address accounts 1 with google.com and 4 with outlook.com. All work perfect except 1 of the outlook.com accounts. All the outlook.com accounts are configured the same (settings, account settings etc). The error message is always "pop3.server3.2: Got an error name=pop3PasswordFailed, the server said: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. 2 Pop3Client.sys.mjs:1576:18".I did not change passwords. In fact, I can go on internet to outlook.com email logon web page and access the email account perfectly, even though it fails everytime with Thunderbird. (it still is same password, never changed). Plese help, I have spent some time trying to solve on my own.

You do need to fix the server names in your Account Settings for the troubled account(s). Once the server names are correct, you can select OAuth2 for authentication.
Incoming: outlook.office365.com Port: 995 User Name: <your e-mail address> Connection security: SSL/TLS Authentication method: OAuth2
Outgoing: smtp.office365.com Port: 587 User Name: <your e-mail address> Connection security: STARTTLS Authentication method: OAuth2
Thanks Christ1 for your time and effort. I do not know why only one account was affected but your solution did the job. You were clear and concise, Much appreciated, keep up the good work!
