IMAP auth in Office 365 using OAuth2

Question

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?

Answer 1

We are actively working on OAuth support for IMAP connections to O365 mailboxes. We will make a public announcement once the same is available.
