Basic Authentication and Exchange Online Update
In September 2021 Microsoft announced the deprecation of Basic Authentication, as it has become an outdated industry standard.
The announcement also advises that effective October 1st, 2022, Basic Authentication will be permanently disabled for Outlook, EWS, RPS, POP, IMAP, and EAS protocols in Exchange Online. SMTP Auth will also be disabled if it is not being used.
This means that, if you use exchange online in Office 365, from the above date you will not be able to email from WinMan, unless you have pursued either one of the pathways offered below. If you use something else your services will remain unaffected, for now.
WinMan is offering three pathways, detailed below, which we require your urgent response to, so that we can action them in time:
Upgrade to latest WinMan Version 8
I’m not sure, can we discuss
