Mail/Calendar client for Exchange server OAuth2

andrewperrin · 10-06-2020, 12:29 PM

I've been using Thunderbird with the Exchange calendar provider to use email and calendar from my employer's Office 365 setup. However as of 10/15 it appears Microsoft will only be allowing OAuth2 connections, and the Exchange provider does not support that.

Is there a viable mail and calendar client that will handle OAuth2 to allow Office365 as the backend? Strong preference for FLOSS, but I'd be willing to go commercial if necessary.

Thanks.

Evolution should do it. It works with MS stuff. It pulls in about a metric ton of Gnome dependencies, but it's about the only Linux game in town for working on Exchange.

Evolution works, but only if administration has registered it for use. Hoping to convince our admins.

The README says a 10 minute build on an i7---takes [ahem] just a bit longer on a Celeron.

Interesting. I'm running a standard 14.2 and ran into the exact same error. (I have an idea what those missing files are but I can't see how their being missing would be a serious problem.

thanks
