Many customers still using older versions of Outlook have been impacted after Microsoft's decision to depreciate Basic Authentication on Microsoft 365 Exchange Online services. This was permanent and cannot be reactivated. In order to continue using Microsoft 365, your software must support Modern Authentication method.

This means that Office 2016 (exception) will only work up to October 2023 before needing to be upgraded further.

As always, we hope you find this useful. If you need any further information or have a specific challenge - please feel free to reach out to us and one of our customer champions will be happy to assist you.
