err, while I understand it is possible to have a google account with a non google user name it is not possible to have the same email address used twice to get mail. ie you can not get mail as [email protected] at gmail as well as at outlook.com unless you have set up one of the accounts to forward to the other with the mail provider.

You will need to add the email address the gmail account uses, not the username

I don't know why do you think it's not possible but it is possible

As I said it is possible to have the same user name. It is not possible for the same email address to be shared across the two providers.

Mail addressed to [email protected] will be delivered to Microsoft as they own the domain hotmail.com Unless you put in some sort of redirect with hotmail no mail addressed to [email protected] will ever appear at google/gmail.

So if you are wanting to add a gmail email address to Thunderbird enter it in the email address in the new account wizard. Leave the password blank.

When the configuration is found click the manual setup option. change the username to your hotmail address as that is your gmail username

But you can not have [email protected] as an email address in Thunderbird for gmail, only as a username. That is what I said and that is what I stick to.

This shows your username, not the email address of the account.

Thunderbird adds email addresses, not usernames. Have a look here for your gmail email address https://myaccount.google.com/email?hl=en_GB&authuser=0&rapt=AEjHL4OVQS_H61af9Uhb75UTFqCiECTQHE51EPloGyCAAXv0QWgzMWokrv4eS3JSHu4E8ATSRdFT4scLszSZwLhhR6LVASdrpElk5h0Xv_5m_MwUmMQPjYw&gar=WzEyMF0

That is the link to my settings, but I guess they will show you yours, not mine.

I checked my email from the link. And I can't find anything else than [email protected]

Maybe you are talking about contact email. I also took screenshot of that
