  1. Normal password won't last so with Thunderbird 115.0 I already moved my accounts to OAuth2. That protocol is available in pop accounts so it's easier to just do it now and get it over with. With mailnews I'll hold off as long as possible unless Roy can add OAuth2 to pop as well. Much prefer that to IMAP.
  2. That did it, using IMAP I'm now getting OAuth2 as an option so I guess problem solved. For now at least normal password is working again so I'll stay with that.
  3. You're using it with IMAP, maybe that's the trick, I prefer POP but I'll see if changing it to IMAP does anything.
  4. Microsoft is so mixed up, now the account is working again with normal protocol. It probably won't last though, eventually they will force OAuth2 exclusively.
  5. That's what I'm using, an office 365 account and that protocol is missing.
  6. Based on this thread it looks like to get OAuth2 for hotmail accounts mailnews needs to be registered with Microsoft servers. Would that be done on the user or developer end? I would guess that for it to be included by default Roy would have to see if it's possible.
  7. It is supporting OAuth2 for me, I've got it working with yahoo but with the hotmail account that protocol option is missing. There's just four: normal, encrypted, kerberos, and NTLM. I've tried setting it up as a new account but no luck. Thunderbird 115.0 has it by default so I was able to get it working with that version. I''ll go through these threads and see what if anything can help.
  8. Thanks, I'll go through it and see what is possible.
  9. Went through previous postings and didn't see any mention of this yet but Microsoft has jumped on the OAuth2 bandwagon for hotmail accounts. The mailnews app doesn't have this option, is it possible to add it?
  10. Thanks Roy, that seems to have fixed both versions for me.
  11. Microsoft is probably doing this to appease European countries who will sue and fine them at the drop of a hat for antitrust. Millions of computers being turned into junk over night is exactly what will do it.
  12. Been using it for years, problems and all. Guess I'll have to stay on last week's versions if and until it can be fixed.
  13. Reposting this in case anyone else reproduces it, seems to be happening with noscript 5.1.9 enabled: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: firefox.exe Application Version: 4.0.5.8774 Application Timestamp: 65a09bff Fault Module Name: xul.dll Fault Module Version: 4.0.5.8774 Fault Module Timestamp: 65a09c90 Exception Code: 80000003 Exception Offset: 003037a5 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789
  14. See my edited post above, it's a problem with noscript. Are you using that? I'll have to try changing some settings.
  15. Have to update this: it is working properly in safe mode so I disabled noscript and that seems to be the problem. I'll try and fiddle around with it, maybe some setting needs to be changed.
  16. This website is causing a crash in today's 52 and 55.0 versions. It worked last week so appears to be a new problem: https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar Edit: tried in Safe Mode and it still crashed but with a new profile it's coming in so it's probably some revised setting in about:config.
  17. Home users like myself will probably consider it if the price is reasonable. If Microsoft expects everyone to pay $300.00 per year they can forget it, especially since the security updates are going out anyway until January 2032 with IoT enterprise versions so it's not like it's a major expense for them.
  18. That's good to know. It's still possible to get updates for Windows 7, at least until October of next year for those with embedded versions so my guess is Win 10 will have support for many years yet.
  19. It is, going out in January and they're already sending out their pester messages to "upgrade". When I get around to it I'll be setting up my gmail account with Thunderbird.
  20. Getting no crashes with either version now, they both seem to be opening and working good.
  21. Same here. If you still have last weeks versions copy in nss3.dll from each into today's versions. That seems to stop the crash until Roy can fix it.
  22. For 52.0 and 55.0 I'm using this string: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:102.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/102.0 Unfortunately the new format is very buggy with these browsers and just logging in to the site slows them down to a crawl. I may end up going back to the bare format to keep it usable.
  23. FWIW it looks like Microsoft did away with the previous usable Hotmail format so now the default string in 52.0 and 55.0 will take you to the bare minimum format similar to gmail's. Changing the string in about:config to Firefox's most recent will render their newer buggy version so that's the choice.
  24. No problem. 52esr is really out of date now but still useful for some sites.
