I'm trying to add my outlook.com email account to Thunderbird. Mail Account Setup recognizes outlook.com (SMTP, POP3, etc) but when I click "done" it checks the password I've entered and returns "Configuration could not be verified", "Username or password invalid". I've tried multiple times and even used the same copy/paste to enter my info into both Thunderbird Setup and outlook.com login. It works fine logging into outlook.com but returns the above error in Mail Account Setup.

Can anyone help?

Had similar problem with adding gmail, and the solution was to dis enable security setting on gmail account. Gmail claim T-bird not a secure site. Assume Google's pathetic attempt at trying to ensure customers use their e-mail server. Not sure if same solution works with Windows
