I have successfully been using an “App password” and SMTP AUTH with no problems up until about 2 weeks ago. I have made no changes or updates to FSM and the user account is still active and able to send emails through Outlook.
Does anyone know why this may have happened and also are there any instruction on setting up OAUTH & SMTP with O365 in FSM

By looking at this MS articel it seems that SMTP AUTH is still available as it was only disabled in tenants where it wasn't being used. Only Basic authentication in Exchange Online for Exchange ActiveSync (EAS), POP, IMAP, Remote PowerShell, Exchange Web Services (EWS), Offline Address Book (OAB), Autodiscover, Outlook for Windows, and Outlook for Mac was removed.
We also use O365 Exchange internally for FSM testing and facing no issues as of yet. Could you issue be realted to something else? Did you check the FSM Server Logs when trying to send notifications?
My idea isn’t implemented yet because we have to ensure that backward compatibility is still given when enhancing the system to use OAuth2 as well for SMTP. That’s why it’s still in the backlog and under investigation.

+25Hi!
AFAIK FSM still doesn’t support OAUTH, see this idea raised by me:
Eventually OAUTH is now forced from O365?

Hi Roman
Thanks for this, I take it you have heard nothing back from IFS? A bit bad if not as your post is over a year old.

+18+18By the way I tested FSM email today in a different Azure subscription that had not had SMTP AUTH enabled previously and it worked the same as in our Azure QA subscription. I used these app param values:
SMTP_SERVER smtp.office365.com
SMTP_PORT 587
SMTP_SSL Y
SMTP_USER xxxx@outlook.com (xxxx is not the actual user name)
SMTP_PASS (password for xxxxx@outlook.com)
DEFAULT_EMAIL_FROM_ADDRESS xxxx@outlook.com (must be same as SMTP_USER for smtp.office365.com)
Enter your E-mail address. We'll send you an e-mail with instructions to reset your password.
