Re: [EXT]Re: XOAUTH2 on O365

Just a quick update on XOAUTH2 and MS 365:

"In response to the COVID-19 crisis and knowing that priorities have 
changed for many of our customers we have decided to postpone disabling 
Basic Authentication in Exchange Online for those tenants still actively 
using it until the second half of 2021. We will provide a more precise 
date when we have a better understanding of the impact of the situation."

Some of the comments are interesting too.

Cheers
