I think the port to use is 563 for SSL encryption.
So Thunderbird updates broke on Windows too? The updates messed up Thunderbird on Macs too, making it unusable to read usenet, and I tried
in vain to use an older version of Thunderbird. But it still can
post, I've noticed that newsreaders ruined by either newsreader updates
on Thunderbird or Mac updates on Mac can still post but can no longer
read news. Reading news seems to be some difficult programming since newsreaders are so bad at it.

One of the reasons I still operate an old Mac Pro tower running OS-X
10.8.5 is that's the last version of OS-X that MT-Newswatcher will run
on. The next OS upgrade up from that breaks Newswatcher and the
developer never upgraded the app to account for it. So I'm frozen in
time on that machine.
(I also use it for my music engraving work because Finale 2009 also will
not work on the newer versions of the Mac OS. Unlike Newswatcher, Finale
has been upgraded but the newest version has been completely revamped
from the ground up. It took me years to learn to proficiently use Finale
the old way and I don't feel like re-learning it all over again. Plus,
they stupidly made it so the new version can't read documents created by
the old version, which would make thousands of files I've worked on over
the years useless.)

I'm still using Sierra, 10.12.6. Everything I use works with it (some
of my stuff is really old), and I don't care about the bells and
whistles that came along in later OSs.
