I am going to terminate an mail account and open another - to do this I have to create an exchange account, I can't create an exchange account without locating my EWS URL - as I don't have any OUTLOOK products (I use Thunderbird e mail) I can't find my EWS URL - suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

EWS used to be called OWA (Outlook Web access) basically it is the URL used to access the mail account using a web browser.

Note unless your exchange server allows IMAP or POP mail protocols, you will need an add-on or other software to get Exchange email with Thunderbird.

Thanks - I actually downloaded the ExQuilla add on but that still didn't solve the problem so I finally managed to do withoutit. Thanks for your time and help. Mike
