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?

Please add the possibility of payment from Russia, for example via cryptocurrency. The extension helps out a lot.

ottima soluzione per utilizzare account exchange su thunderbird: si configura con estrema facilità e funziona senza problemi, ti dimentichi anche di averlo installato.

This is a fantastic add-on. Is there a way to connect more than one calendar? I use a second private calendar besides the default one for work.

Thank you for your praise. Unfortunately, at this time, we support only a single calendar per mail account.

Since TB 102, I have an issue with the Unified Folders view. On start up, it opens the unified inbox and has two copies of the exchange account inbox. When I click and unclick the All Folders option, it is corrected. Next time I start the app, the same thing happens. In TB 91.12.0 this does not happen.

Otherwise, it is an excellent extension well worth the price to avoid outlook.

It's functional, though I still have to use the web OWA for a few things. Support for shared calendars is high on my wishlist.

Worked like a charm and got me out of a pinch when GoDaddy forced their migration to Office / Outlook. Only needed it for the 30-day free trial but was happy to purchase a year anyways :)

Hey Greg, I'm happy that Owl helped you and worked well for you. Thanks so much for your positive review! I wish you the best for your migration.

I used to really like this, but since TB102 the dynamic accounts created by the add-on are lost in saved searches at each restart. I sent a support request, which went into a black hole apparently. I will happily change my rating if someone from Beonex will engage.

UPDATE: Thank you for responding to my support request and here! Looking forward to the update...

Thank you for your bug report. Thunderbird 102 changed (again!) the startup timing of addons, which again broke a few things. We fixed the obvious problems, but this may have broken Saved Searches. We'll have to look into this.
