Changes to OAuth2
I would like to change the authentication method to OAuth2, but it doesn't appear in the drop-down menu.
My Thunderbird version is 140.4.0esr (64-bit). I have all cookies set to allow.
How do I change it to OAuth2?

Your email provider needs to support Oauth2. If you share your email provider info, someone here may be able to advise.
Thanks for your advice, David!
The information for my email provider is as follows:
Basic authentication will be discontinued on November 4th, so I need to switch to OAuth2 authentication.
Email provider name: "Yahoo! Mail", supported by Yahoo! Japan Server Type: pop3 Incoming server: pop.mail.yahoo.co.jp Port No.: 995 Security settings: SSL/TLS
Outgoing server: smtp.mail.yahoo.co.jp Port No.: 465 Security settings: SSL/TLS
Is there any other information you need?
Do you get an error when you click the 'authentication' setting for the server? Doing that should be sufficient.
It's possible to force OAuth2 if it isn't an option in the menus, but I think your account will work with the 'generic' Yahoo servers imap.mail.yahoo.com, pop.mail.yahoo.com and smtp.mail.yahoo.com, all of which are OAuth2-supported in TB.
