Can't get OAUTH to open a browser window

#3470

I've been using Mailmate for years with my exchange account, using the IMAP and SMTP settings. It usually works with no problem.
But now I can't get Mailmate to open a browser window, during the OAUTH process, to enter my password and my two factor-authentication code.

I have deleted Mailmate, all the local Library files (applicaiton support, preferences, cache), so I can start over with a fresh install. But the moment I enter my SMTP/IMAP settings, the wheel start spinning and Mailmate does not open a browser window. I've experimented with using a different default browser, but still no luck.

Who has a clue how to fix this?
