Exchange & gmail probs with upgrade to thunderbird 102.7.0
I just upgraded to 102.7.0 and now my work email connections to 2 different Office365 exchange servers will not authenticate, and neither will my gmail connection. All worked fine before the upgrade. All work on older versions on other computers.

I think I know what is going on...but wow, did thunderbird not handle this upgrade well. There should have been warnings and help available to users when it was apparent the developers new this was going to happen. Doesn't matter if it happened because Microsoft was non-responsive, the app developers need to mitigate foreseeable problems for users. When I went to look at the release notes for the upgrade, as of 1:39 pm EST, they do not exist!
Having read this minutes before lobbing in here, I actually understood as well. https://thunderbird.topicbox.com/groups/enterprise/T262ef074c0833a12/important-thunderbird-102-7-0-and-microsoft-365-enterprise-users
Lets see if anyone responds to my comments.
But, that should not affect gmail, so there may be more to your issue.
No matter the reason, I just want to say thanks for fixing the Exchange authentication issue - much appreciated. It should be noted that the suggested roll back to 106.1 was a very easy temporary fix while things were being sorted out.
