New computer with Windows 11, copied my profiles over with fresh thunderbird install from web. Fresh Sage install. Set Thunderbird to default mail app in program and in windows settings/apps. When I try to email from Sage it will open up the thunderbird window, and sage says "emailing so and so....". It eventually times out with a mapi 2 error. I've reinstalled thunderbird, and changed port 587 and back. Checked registry entries. Thunderbird works perfectly otherwise. I'll try reinstalling Sage tomorrow. Anything else I should try? Is 32 bit still a thing to try?

If Sage is 32-bit, TB must also be 32-bit for MAPI connections to work. Unless you specified 32-bit, the standard TB installation would be 64-bit.
