New M365 Channel using GraphAPI instead of IMAP/SMTP

  1. What is your original issue/pain point you want to solve?
    Microsoft 365 provides access to their mailboxes using IMAP/SMTP+OAuth or their GraphAPI interface directly. The GraphAPI approach has several benefits for users with Microsoft 365 mailboxes:
  • No need to manually configure Zammad as an app in the Azure Portal
  • It still can be used when IMAP/SMTP is disabled tenant-wide
  • It is faster
  1. Which are one or two concrete situations where this problem hurts the most?
    Our service provider decided to disable IMAP/SMTP support for whatever reason.

  2. Why is it not solvable with the Zammad standard?
    Because Zammad persist on IMAP/SMTP at the moment.

  3. What is your expectation/what do you want to achieve?
    Being able to use GraphAPI for e-mail fetching and sending.
