Introduce a function to prevent authorization (OAuth) of the wrong incoming email account.

When re-authorizing our MS365/OAuth mailboxes last weekend, I inadvertently authorized access to the wrong mailbox. 5 times. Losing all my email from my staff Inbox. Not my best moment, but what would help to prevent this is to implement a function to (basically) prevent you from using the wrong email address/mailbox.

1 - If possible, allow WHD to compare the email address entered into the MS365 login box with what is in the mailbox settings screen your authorizing from, then either prevent login or flash a warning stating that the email address being used does not match the address under the current email settings.

2 - If that's not possible, could the email address in the mailbox settings be auto-filled into the MS365 login box? This solution would presumedly be much simpler and provide a better experience in general.

Either solution should obviously be implemented for both incoming and outgoing mailbox authorization.

To add to this, I realize there are times when you may already be logged into MS365, thus never be prompted with the login box. However, perhaps WHD could display a warning whenever it sees that the login prompt was bypassed?

I don't know if any of this is possible, but I do know that the consequences of authorizing access to the wrong mailbox is very bad.
