Exchange server with IMAP

#3120

Hello,

I try to connect to with MailMate Version 1.13.2 (5673) on a M1 to an Exchange server with IMAP (without OAuth2) and I get the following error:

various configurations have been tried without success and the password is certainly correct.

Thanks for your help.

    You will very likely need OAuth2 to make this work, but this is only available in beta/test releases of MailMate. Hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software Update preferences pane to get the latest test release.

    Let me know if this does not help.

    Hello Benny

    I have now tested this with the beta/test and OAuth2 seems to really work. Thank you very much, that would solve the problem of being able to check email without 2FA.

    Thanks for your help!
