Email Connection Protocols

Currently the Task Factory email connection supports only POP3 and IMAP protocols.

Both of those protocols are insecure by today's security standards and many email providers have plans to soon deprecate their support for them.


I request that the email connection be modified to use Modern Authentication (based on ADAL and OAuth 2.0).

Thank You

  • At MS, POP3 and IMAPS will still be supported further on. EWS and MS-Graph are added as new and more secure protocols, but BASIC-Authentication will be deprecated at October 2022.
    Then you have to use  the EmailOAuth2ConnectionManager that already uses Modern Authentication today. 

    I guess what you mean is, that EmailOAuth2ConnectionManager should also support EWS and MS-Graph.
    At the moment it only supports IMAP and POP3
