Thunderbird 102.6.1 (64-bit) on Windows 10 machine

I cannot download my mail (POP3) from University server (outlook.office365.com, port 995) configured with SSL/TLS and OAuth2 after changing the password. Note that I could download my mail without problem before the password change. Now, when I click on the Get Email, I see "Host contacted, sending login information ...".

On the Error console, I see a series of `NS_ERROR_FAILURE: Couln't decrypt string`.

I have tried:

  • TB as allowed app in windows firewall
  • Deleting saved passwords. This leads to TB to show windows for credentials. After entering the new password, the windows disappear and we are back to the above problem.
  • If I enter a wrong password, I am asked to enter the correct one. After entering the correct password, I think that a token is successveli retrieved because of the line in the error console: `15:57:55.730 XHRPOSThttps://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token [HTTP/1.1 200 OK 438ms]`.
  • Note that in the error console, this message NS_ERROR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED: Component returned failure code: 0x80004001 (NS_ERROR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED) [nsIRequest.name]` appear.
  • Deleting cert9.dn, key4.db, xulstore.json, logins.json in profile does not help.

Hmm do you have an anti virus that might be messing with SSL/TLS certificates. Avast and Kaspersky do this man in the middle hack I know using self signed certificates , others as well. If the certificate is being changed on the sly by the anti virus then a failure to decrypt would be something I would expect.

Thank you for the reply because I did not find a solution yet. I have only Windows Security built-in virus protection but tunrning it off did not help. Please, help find me a solution and/how suggest steps to identify the issue better.

My account setup might be a bit unconventional because I transfered my profile from another machine and edited profiles.ini manually. It was working fine until I had to the change of password a week ago.

Here are my install.ini:

[D78BF5DD33499EC2] 
Default=Profiles/vqctlixl.default-release
Locked=1

and profiles.ini files:

[InstallD78BF5DD33499EC2]
Default=Profiles/gabriel
Locked=1

[Profile2]
Name=gabriel
IsRelative=1
Path=Profiles/gabriel
Default=1

[Profile1]
Name=default
IsRelative=1
Path=Profiles/fyzzvz0o.default

[Profile0]
Name=default-release
IsRelative=1
Path=Profiles/vqctlixl.default-release

[General]
StartWithLastProfile=1
Version=2

Only the Profiles/gabriel folder exists and contains all my profile. Is it ok? Should I try to create new account? How can I do it without messing up with previous downloaded mail?

Help needed. I would like to understand why it is happening and how to fix it. I can't download my mail with TB. Thanks.
