[Users] OAuth2 Setup for Outlook.com Email Accounts

I'm wanting to set up a couple outlook.com email accounts with Oauth2.
However, when I follow the instructions in the FAQ and (in the Azure
portal) click on 'View' under 'Manage Microsoft Entra ID', I get an
error pop-up that indicates some sort of authentication problem and
includes phrases something like 'Selected user account does not exist
in tenant 'Microsoft Services' and cannot access the application'. It
suggests signing in again with a different account or perhaps the same
account, but that doesn't help. It also gives the option of ignoring
the error and continuing with limited functionality, but that doesn't
work either.

Searching online shows that multiple people have run into this same or
a similar problem when trying to access one or more of Microsoft's
service pages via their Microsoft account, but I haven't found any kind
of solution. (One person fixed their problem by 'deleting Azure' and
another by re-installing Windows, but neither of those apply to my
situation. 🙂️ ) The above issue prevents me from doing the necessary
set up in Azure.

Has anyone run into this problem and figured out a way to get around
it? Has anyone gotten Oauth2 successfully set up for an outlook.com
email account in Claws? Any tips or ideas on how I might be able to
move forward with this?

Thanks,
Dustin
