Without going into POP, IMAP, and such, please answer just this: If I'm presently using Thunderbird to receive my Outlook.com Email, and it's working just fine, do I need to do anything to my settings to continue receiving Outlook.com mail from July on?

The very reason I installed Thunderbird a few weeks ago was because Microsoft informed me that soon I wouldn't be able to use Windows Live Mail. At that time, I removed WLM and set up Thunderbird. I don't recall the settings (POP/IMAP, etc.)--I just know everything works fine right now. I also know I do not want to use Windows 10 Mail, nor do I want to have to go online to Outlook.com to receive my mail.

Thanks in advance for a simple answer, and thanks for Thunderbird. [I'm running Windows 10 on a Dell desktop PC.]

In answer to your actual question. None....

But you might want to be aware of this. Microsoft are changing POP settings as they convert Hotmail accounts to outlook.com accounts. See http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2016/06/hotmail-proxy-errors.html

A simple fix once you know how. and if you are using IMAP will never affect you at all.
