Hi Philippe,

Please see the FAQ that explains how to set this up. You need to register
Claws with Microsoft to get a ClientID - this is because Claws has not
been through the whole app audit process to be globally registered (as
Thunderbird has). But it's a one-off process you can do yourself after
which Claws works fine using Oauth2 authentication.
