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.<br>

Spot on!<br>
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.<br>
Change my Exchange Server account to a plain IMAP account, and
use<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://fruux.com/"> Fruux</a>
to sync Contacts, calendar and Tasks.<br>
(Besides which, it's much cheaper than Office 365 and Open
Source!)<br>
<br>
Thanks for the help.<br>

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.<br>
