Autodiscover kept failing for me for reasons difficult to understand, until I imported the employer's CA certificates into Thunderbird.

You may want to make TbSync handle such errors better -- with a more informative error-message and/or an option to create exceptions.

Thank you for your software, BTW. Now that I've overcome the certificate problem, the auto-discovery worked and I was able to import the calendar and the contacts...

The latest beta does report detailed certificate errors, but not yet during autodiscover. It is on my list now.

Any chance you could send me (via email) the account you are using, so I can test against your server? I do not need the password, because cert errors will occur before authentication.

Latest beta shows a detailed error screen after autodiscover failed. This should give enough hints on what is going wrong, does it?

Could you uninstall your certificate and retry to see, if the information provided is helping to identify the cause of error?
