Thunderbird and Hotmail
Since Microsoft changed it's login process for Hotmail I am no longer able to get my mail. How do I change Thunderbird to work again?

Try these: - incoming: outlook.office365.com, port 993, SSL/TLS, Oauth2 (assuming IMAP) - outgoing: smtp.office365.com, port 587, STARTTLS, Oauth2
Thunder keeps changing the server to "pop3.live.com" port 994 and still does not get my e-mails
thunderbird does not do that. you should be able to click 'account settings' and enter the new server info.
The only way I was able to get Thunderbird to work correctly was set an entirely new account for Hotmail. Which is what I did.
Others have had to do similarly, something about the Oauth2 setup. I'm glad it now works. Thanks for the good news. :)
