Thunderbird and AOL QAuth
I use Thunderbird version 91.3.2. I have gotton the same e-mails other people have gotten about AOL using QAuth. Verizon a few years ago moved their e-mail over to aol. So I have 5 account that end in @verizon.net. The AOL e-mails I have recieved have give a few options I need to do by Dec 7th. I did option #2, by deleting all the e-mail account and re-installed them back into Thunderbird, I did not see any changes. I tried Option 3 to get an apppassword, and still no luck. My question is will Option 2 not make any changes until after the Dec 7th date.
Has anybody had success with switching Thunderbird with verizon.net account? If so what did you do.
Thanks for any help. Paul

Use imap.aol.com on 993 or pop.aol.com on 995 for the incoming, and smtp.aol.com on 465 for the outgoing, SSL/TLS, OAuth2 authentication, User Name = email address. Remove the passwords from Saved Passwords in Preferences, accept cookies in TB Preferences, restart TB, enter the account (not app) password in the OAuth window when asked to allow access.
