IMAP auth in Office 365 using OAuth2

问题:

I'm using an IMAP client in my program. I'm trying to access to Office 365 outlook by IMAP client using OAuth2 mechanism (using these instructions.)

When I authenticate in IMAP client - authentication failes, but OAuth2 authentication of Google and Outlook.com works fine. Does Office 365 support OAuth2 authentication in IMAP? If it does, how to authenticate?

回答1:

We don't support OAuth for IMAP access to Office 365 and we have no plans to do so as we recommend using our REST APIs to connect to Office 365 for your apps. OAuth is supported for Office 365 REST APIs for mail, calendar and contacts and our older SOAP APIs Exchange Web Services.
