Hi Thunderbird Support Team,

I recently installed the latest version of Thunderbird in a Hyper-V virtual machine and encountered the following message: " Approval required Mozilla Thunderbird This app requires your admin's approval to: Read and write access to mailboxes via IMAP. Read and write access to mailboxes via POP.

Allows the app to have the same access to mailboxes as the signed-in user via POP protocol.

This is a permission requested to access your data in xx Send emails from mailboxes using SMTP AUTH. Maintain access to data you have given it access to View users' basic profile"

This was functioning with the previous version of Thunderbird, but now my IT team requires additional information about what the app is trying to do with our Office 365 environment. The approval process is crucial because some apps may introduce security risks or seek extensive access to our Office 365 resources.

Could you please provide more detailed information on the permissions requested and the specific changes in this version compared to previous versions? This will help in getting the necessary approval from our IT team.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards, Jenny

Does anyone know if there are any changes in the permissions or behavior between this version and previous ones that could be triggering the admin approval process?

Any insights would be appreciated, as this information is needed to move forward with our IT team's approval process.

I understand Thunderbird version 128 ('Nebula') introduced significant updates, including new MS Exchange integration features, but these updates require additional permissions. As a temporary workaround, I reinstalled version 115 and set up the profile, which continues to work even after auto-upgrading to 128+. However, I need to convince my IT team to approve the new permissions for Thunderbird 128. Could any experts provide more details about these permissions and why they are necessary?

@Wayne, Thanks for the help. The answer provides useful guidance on setting up OAuth2 authentication in Thunderbird, which might assist with integrating Microsoft accounts. However, it doesn't specifically address the IT approval process required for the new MS Exchange integration in Thunderbird 128, which is my main concern.

I don't know how, but I missed that you are trying to do exchange. v128 does not yet have exchange support. See https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Exchange

Hi Wayne,

If I understand correctly, Thunderbird 128's new Exchange features introduce additional security and access requirements, prompting organizations to review and approve permissions to secure sensitive data. In contrast, Thunderbird 115 doesn’t need these extra permissions, as it lacks the advanced Exchange integration in version 128. Could you please confirm if this is accurate?

Thanks, Jenny
