The way I think is that since Evolution is the only mail client with proper enterprise capabilities, it'd probably be of interest to many to get it working with the highest security settings available as seen on Outlook at Office365. I'm kinda wondering if there's any work being done on getting Evolution to work with Microsoft's modified variant of OAuth2, as used by Office365 online, as it seems it currently dosn't? What is the list's thoughts on this?Evolution works fine with Office365 and MFA, I have it set up on multiple machines. What sort of MFA are you using - I know hardware keys don't work on Linux, but the Microsoft Authenticator app is sufficient.We have recently discovered that initial account configuration needs to use basic auth mode, once you are done you can switch to MFA. This is not obvious for users.
Oh! I've only used Basic or NTLM authentication previously when I was reconfigured to use MFA and Evolution stopped working for me. Shouldn't it have worked for me with MFA then? Is there any guide or some such I could forward or point to the mail admins to get MFA working with Office365 and MFA? -- Sorin Srbu, Serverdrift Karolinska Institutet Universitetsbibliotek Avdelningen för Verksamhetsstöd Enheten för Teknikstöd och Bildproduktion
