I'm trying to change Thunderbird's authentication method for sending messages (SMTP), but OAuth2 does not appear as one of the Authentication Method options. I do not have Office 365. Please advise! Thank you.

Don't know how to post a screenshot without showing too much info! The SMTP Server Authentication Method dropdown box gives only these options: No Authentication; Normal Password; Encrypted Password; Kerberos / GSSAPI; and NTLM. There is no option for OAuth2.

My setting for the SMTP Server is smtp.office365.com.

and have you restarted Thunderbird. For reasons really only understood by developers the oauth option is not visible until Thunderbird restarts.
