Hi,

I updated Thunderbird to the latest 115 version this morning, and a strange microsoftonline.com authentication pop up has been showing up since then every time Thunderbird checks if there's new email from hotmail.com. How do I get rid of this pop up window?

Thanks, Tang

Yes, it's something similar. I also found out it's actually from an outlook.com email instead of hotmail.com email. I found a solution for it by switching from OAuth2 to normal password authentication method.
