Outlook (exchange) with the help of Owl was working in Thunderbird until yesterday.

Microsoft has a recurring issue (aside from the Thunderbird issue) in which you keep being asked to "fix" your Microsoft account by logging in again. Many people have reported this issue to Microsoft.

In Thunderbird, this was workable because Thunderbird would simply display the login page, able to login each time Thunderbird opens to retrieve Outlook messages

This no longer works.

Now, the Login page for Outlook flashes on and immediately closes, with the message in the bottom tray reading: "login expired. please log in to your account and try again." No way to do that but to launch Thunderbird again, and the situation happens again.

If I add this same outlook account AGAIN within the same session, that account receives my messages, after which I delete the first Outlook account from Thunderbird.. every time. Not a workable situation.

I love Thunderbird for all my pop and imap accounts and really don't want to have to use two apps.

You'll need to contact the Owl extension author for this.

Thanks for the reply.

I have spoken to Owl and this isn't connected with them, according to them.

Since Outlook users have been having login issues with Microsoft, I wondered if there were a different way of setting up the account in Thunderbird in which the login wasn't required each time.

As it stands, Outlook cannot be used at all in Thunderbird, at least from this login standpoint, for me.

I'm afraid I can't help you with this. I've tried Owl a while ago, but it didn't work for me with the corporate Exchange server. You may want to try ExQuilla from the same author. It somewhat worked for me, but compared to IMAP, it still felt rather fragile. I'm not blaming the extension for this. I've removed ExQuilla since, primarily because one cannot properly setup OpenPGP and S/MIME encryption for ExQuilla accounts.

When the problem is a known Microsoft issue you may not have much luck with ExQuilla either.
