Damn, I never thought getting help configuring Mutt for my AOL email account would be such a big hassle.  I used to use mutt for my Gmail accounts, but Google, as you know, stopped allowing Gmail to be used with Mutt.  Configuring Mutt to be used with my Gmail accounts was as easy as modifying

PLAIN auth mechanism fails with outlook.office365.com imap server

2023-04-13 Thread Sébastien Hinderer
Dear all, I am unfortunate enough to have to use an Office365 e-mail account. I am told by its sysadmin that IMAP support is enabled. I am using mutt version 2.2.9-1+b1 (Debian). When trying to authenticate, the only mechanism mutt and the server have in common is PLAIN, which is not ideal but
