The only tips you should know with TbSync is that after installing it (as an Tools → Add-ons ) the configuration can be accessed from Tools → Synchronization Settings (TbSync) : ... or alternatively under Tools → Add-on Options → TbSync : The easiest way that I have found is to use the Davmail connector. This is a Java applet that runs in the background on your Windows 10 PC. To Thunderbird it looks like IMAP for receiving email, SMTP for sending it, and LDAP for address book queries. On the Office365 side it talks the native protocols. I've been using it for about five years ...
