Thank you so much for a great addon and a good job maintaining it. The 10 Euros are worth it.

Thank you for the update. The owl team has been working hard on this despite the fact the error might come primary from o365 server update!
Friendly speaking, I has used owl for several years and it has been a good add-ons to user with the exchange o365 server.

Edit//
Problems fixed! I'm back in action! Amazing response to get thinks fixed!

//Still a great add in but the recent Office365 change has me down. I didn't check here before I removed the account and tried to re-add it. Can't log back in to Office either. Guess I'll hobble along on Outlook until this is fixed.

I use Thunderbird. I like Thunderbird. OWL lets me do my work email my way rather than caving in to my work's preference that I use Microsoft products. I store my messages locally on my computer rather than on the server. MailBird is not a good substitute. I was looking into making MailBird and MailStore Home substitute for Thunderbird and OWL because OWL stopped working last night. I am delighted and very relieved that OWL was fixed. Now I have to go and catch up on email!

The last two years owl worked nicely with office365 exchange (OWA) and i was very pleased.
Outlook is missing a lot of search features and is very uncomfortable when different EMail providers and formats are used. OWL enables to read emails and use the calendar of exchange.

But Caveat! Microsoft makes it hard for add-ons by changing the interface.

From around Januar 6th to January 10th suddenly a number of problems occured:
- attachments were not downloaded (their name visible but strikethrough)
- ctrl+u to show the source code of messages showed a white page
- reply to emails had neither the address nor the original email cited
It looked like the OWA authentification did not allow the download of emails but only displaying emails.
(Versions: TB 102.6.1 and owl 1.0.1)

I sent a bug report here on January 9th in the afternoon, and on January 10th the bug was fixed (1.0.2). Great service.

Thank you very much!

Hi Sporer, thank you for the kind words. We understand that you depend on email, and we strive to keep it working as reliable as we can. Yes, we tried our best to fix the problem as soon as possible, immediately when we became aware of it. I'm happy to hear that the problem is now fixed for you!

Thank you.

Enjoy :-)

Prima geholpen. Ben zelf alleen een gebruiker en heb weinig verstand van computers. Mijn email werkte niet meer en werd net zo lang geholpen totdat alles weer werkte. Nogmaals bedankt

Simple email communication and very basic calendar functionality works.
However, the integration into thunderbird is only very limited and the calendar lacks a lot of features.
Meeting invitations only work sometimes.
If you get an invitation via a mail distribution list (e.g. all-assisants@your-work-mail), the meeting invitation is not handled correctly and an error occurs if you try to accept the invitation or if you somehow try to edit the calendar event.
Moreover, only my main calendar gets synced to thunderbird. If I create more calendars, there is no possibility to add those in thunderbird. Or If you unsubscribe from one calendar, you cannot add it again.

Moreover, all the free/busy calendars from my colleges cannot be added to thunderbird.
The API apparently exists, since it is possible to see the availability if you create a dummy calendar event with one of your colleges as an attendee.
I also wrote an issue about this on their issue tracker, but no response within the last weeks.
Shared and public calendars can also not be added.

Though, all these features are available in the Evolution mail client, so it must be possible and it is completely free.

The only reason I switched to thunderbird, was the possibility to use other addons, which are not available in evolution.
So I would be very happy, if the integration with microsoft exchange will be as good as the one in evolution at some point in time.

I am not sure if I would pay again for this addon, since it is currently as good as just using IMAP for the mail communication, since I cannot really use the calendar functions right now.
Though, I would be happy to pay even more, if all functionalities are available.

Edit:
Ok, it is fair to acknowledge, that full calendar functionality is not advertised for this add-on.

Hi Fred, I'm sorry that you're having trouble with the calendar feature. Indeed, we would like to improve the calendar feature in the future.

Please note that calendar functionality is still in beta and not an advertized feature here on this page nor on our website. This is deliberate, because we know that our calendar feature still has some shortcomings. Could you please base your product review and rating on the features that we promised here on this page, specifically receiving and sending emails?

Great app that saves a lot of hassle and allows to keep all email accounts and calendars in a single space (I've been using it for a few years).
Also, fantastic support; a very reassuring experience contacting them and receiving attentive response.

I can confirm the issue of the calendar not updating when an event from 365 is deleted is solved with the Owl 0.8.4. Thank you very much for the support!

J'apprécierais beaucoup deux fonctionnalités de base :

1) Sur Thunderbird que le compte apparaisse dans la liste déroulante lorsque l'on répond à un mail. Ce manque est vraiment très gênant.

2) que l'on puisse enregistrer automatiquement le mot de passe pour s'épargner cette étape chaque fois que l'on ouvre Thunderbird.

Autrement, c'est top !

Salut, je ne peut pas reproduire les problemes que tu as mentionee. Il devrai etre specifique a ton environment et configuration:

1) Mes comptes Owl apparaisse dans la liste déroulante dans le email composer.
2) Le remplissage automatique du mot de passe dépend fortement de votre serveur de messagerie et de votre page de connexion, car c'est le serveur de connexion de votre organisation qui apporte cette formulaire, et chacun est différent. Owl peut remplir automatiquement les pages de connexion normales d'Outlook 365.

Works very well and syncs calendars between my Exchange account and Thunderbird. Version 0.8.3 had an issue with syncing from Exchange to Thunderbird, but this has been fixed in version 0.8.4. Download it from the author's web site and install.

Great application. But Calendar was broken (read-mode) on Thunderbird 102.3.1 (64-битный)
EWS (not OWA)

UPD 2022-10-26:
Fixed in Thunderbird 102.4.0. My rate was changed to 5 stars. Thank you.

Works great and this is a life saver for me on Linux in order to have my Office 365 emails in Thunderbird.
I had to un-install it and re-install it when I upgraded to Thunderbird 102 in order to get the calendar part to work properly.

***** Update working great as of 10 - Oct -2022. Thanks for the update

I just tested and it works fine with the latest version of Owl and Thunderbird. Do you have addon updates disabled?
