SMTP Auth BasicOAuth

SMTP Auth BasicOAuth

Applies To:

All versions of Cryptshare Server

Problem

Microsoft will disable Basic Authentication in Office365 / Exchange Online in October 2022. Cryptshare is using SMTP Auth, so what does that mean to our customers?

Solution/Workaround

Cryptshare customers can use Cryptshare as usual without any concerns regarding the switch to OAuth. Cryptshare will still work as intended.


Microsoft Statement:

„SMTP AUTH will still be available when Basic authentication is permanently disabled on October 1, 2022. The reason SMTP will still be available is that many multi-function devices such as printers and scanners can't be updated to use modern authentication.“
