Server Name: outlook.office365.com Port: 995 Security: SSL/TLS Authentication: Normal Password

Note: Your Outlook/Hotmail account password won't work with Thunderbird's Normal Password authentication. Instead, what you need is an app password. See https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-billing/using-app-passwords-with-apps-that-don-t-support-two-step-verification-5896ed9b-4263-e681-128a-a6f2979a7944 for details. After you've created the app password, use that with Thunderbird.
