Thank you Olaf!
I get exactly the error message you describe. Here's a screenshot:

So the link give by claws does work and I get an authentication page
from office365. After authentication it goes wrong because of
http://127.0.0.1:8888 as redirect URL.
I will try to modify the source as suggested and compile my own claws.
Is there any chance that this tweak would be included in a next release
of claws-mail? I think it might be useful for lots of users who are
forced to OAuth2 by their institution.
Best regards, --Philippe

But this alone will not help because O365 may allow only https://localhost as redirect URL. As a consequence you must tweak claws.git/src/oauth2.c and adjust the listening port from "8888" to "443", and adjust the redirect_url to "https://localhost".
