Last Saturday morning on Nov. 19th I downloaded to Thunderbird from my Hotmail account then later that day I went to get messages and received the following message:

Sending of password for user annoyacat@hotmail.com did not succeed. Mail server pop-mail.outlook.com responded: Authentication failure: unknown user name or bad password. [Error="AuthFailed:LogonDenied-FederatedStsUnreachable-<X-forwarded-for:71.237.197.120><ADFS-Business-114ms>failed logon error - STSFailure - '<S:Code><S:Value>S:Sender<S:Value>wst:InvalidRequest</S:Subcode></S:Code><S:Text xml:lang='en-US'>Invalid Request</S:Reason><psf:error xmlns:psf='http://schemas.microsoft.com/Passport/] I made no changes to Thunderbird's settings or my password. I checked my saved passwords in Thunderbird and they were correct. I have no problem sending out email from annoyacat@hotmail.com but I cannot receive or download the emails.

To Paul McKeown: Your post lacked information, and did not resolve my issue. I still cannot download email from my hotmail.com account into Thunderbird. Uninstalling the account and re-adding did not resolve the issue.

There are currently about 14 threads about the issue on this forum, caused by Microsoft not allowing logins for @hotmail.com addresses, although it should have been resolved by now. Did you use the search?

Please see this question for the workaround.
