"User Authenticated But Not Connected" Error

msaedwards2021

I've been using Thunderbird since it was first made available for Android, and I've used it successfully until recently. I have a new Outlook email address that I cannot sign into even though the Outlook email I have been using with Thunderbird since the beginning has never given me any issues. I get the "user authenticated but not connected" error. What can I do to resolve this issue so that I can have all my emails together in one app. Just to make things clear my old Outlook account which uses the email in writing you from connects flawlessly. It's a new one that is giving me issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

The following link might be helpful: on July 10th one hotmail account stopped opening and a message window appeared saying that authentication was OK but it wasn't able to connect. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1524814#answer-1751319

I reckon it is a deeper problem - see my post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1569084

In my. case - and possibly yours, TB is failing because it is using, what has become a legacy protocol. Microsoft now requires the OAuth2 token to have:

a) Audience: https://outlook.office.com/ b) Scope: IMAP.AccessAsUser.All c) Client classification: must be recognized as a “native mail client” for IMAP.

For example, on (a), currently, I believe TB uses a generic public client registration and unable to handle passkey authentication.
