Can't connect to MSN email in Thunderbird
I used to read my MSN email via Thunderbird. Then one day it told me I had to provide the MSN password to connect. I discovered that I couldn't connect to MSN at all. Had to create a new password for Microsoft, and I know what that is but then they have you do a second thing for the MSN email, and I connect to that but can't see what the password is. How do I find my MSN email password so I can give it to Thunderbird? I've tried various methods, but no luck. Thanks for any help you can provide.

You need to login to login.live.com and create an app password there. Once confirmed, MS shows your new password on screen to be copied and used for your email account.
Thank you so much, David. I could have sworn that was one of the methods I tried previously, but apparently not. I'm now hooked up properly again. Best Regards, George
Funny. I received the update email myself just today. So I had just finished the update when your question came in. :) You're most welcome.
