Hello all,
My school uses Office 365, also for mail. I used to be able to get my mail using imap and be able to answer these mails using Office's smtp.
Now they activated two factor authentication and kmail can't access anymore. I had to remove this imap access as it tended to block kmail (that was waiting for me to act on it's error message).
I've solved the problem of receiving the mail (which is the most important) by simply forwarding to my usual account (which is linked to my website).
However, I have to log in m$ stuff (online) to answer because Oulook refuses mails from my private mail server.
It looks like they use something named OAuth and this does not appear to exist in TDE's kmail. Does someone know if it's possible to tweak settings so as to communicate with OAuth?
IMO no. OAuth is broken beyond repair, nobody (besides M$) uses it.
I can try to ask our IT people but they usually simply answer that Linux is not supported and I should run Windows...
Somebody turned OAuth on, somebody can turn it off. But this somebody is not your IT peaople - they won't turn it off 'cause they can't and don't dare to admit it. So either use M$ or don't use the provided email at all - which is how a noticable amount of teachers handle the "free" service of M$ Teams here.
