Well regrettably the only thing I know of to connect to Exchange using
thunderbird is ExQuilla which is not free. I think Evolution does/used
to connect directly to EWS though - but it isn't my email application of
choice.

Spot on!
Unfortunately it now appears that the Exchange EWS add-in (to sync
Contacts, Calendar and Tasks) doesn't work with that server, and
neither does it work with the "correct" server either, so it's on to
Plan B.
Change my Exchange Server account to a plain IMAP account, and
useFruux <https://fruux.com/> to sync Contacts, calendar and Tasks.
(Besides which, it's much cheaper than Office 365 and Open Source!)
Thanks for the help.

Try using m.outlook.com as the server name, works for me certainly
for IMAP and SMTP. I found that buried in a help and support article
on the Microsoft website a few months ago and it's working right now
on Thunderbird, Ubuntu 13.10. For some bizarre reason unbeknown to
everyone the settings given in OWA simply don't work.

I use a Hosted Exchange Email account (Office 365) and am having
very odd problems connecting both in Thunderbird and Evolution.
If I try to set up IMAP email in both Tbird and Evolution, it just
goes into a circle of an error message saying "Cannot connect -- is
the User name and Password correct?" which of course they are.
IMAP access works perfectly well in Thunderbird on Windows 8.1 so
the server has IMAP set up OK.
Trying to use ExQuilla in TBird with EWS, the autodiscovery works
fine, but it then hangs and finally fails on "testing URL".
Other IMAP mail accounts work perfectly well in both Tbird and
Evolution, so I'm at a loss as to why this particular IMAP account
(and/or EWS via ExQuilla) doesn't work.
Anyone seen this and is there a solution?
