    They should also add support for Unified push. More apps need to embrace it! Currently there are no notifications at all.

      I read the article and still a bit confused (I’m no email expert). Is the practical benefit of using EWS? I’ve got a Microsoft account email, but it has been working fine, I presumably set it up with IMAP/POP?

        In practice many Exchange enterprise admins disable or restrict protocols other than EWS. This feature allows you to use Thunderbird anyways and will also enable calendar sync in the future, another often restricted part.

        My work Microsoft account doesn’t work at all with Thunderbird. With my previous employer it did, but now my only option has been webmail.

        I really hope this fixes that. Haven’t looked into it yet.

      The best time is always yesterday, the second best time is now. Let’s just be happy we got this much wanted feature without having to use a paid addon now!
