You might be right about ActiveSync; perhaps your school is only
supporting that, rather than full Exchange w/Oauth2. As for MM, I think
the OAuth2 option only becomes available after entering the appropriate
server hostnames for IMAP & SMTP (and maybe even hitting "apply").
Also, I think r5757 is needed.
Good luck.

Thanks, Eric. Active Sync is evidently Microsoft's version of IMAP. It
has been around for a while and MS is apparently claiming that Active
Sync is more secure for mobile devices. I tried to set up a new IMAP
account with MailMate, but get no screen showing the option of OAuth2,
and I'm quite sure now that Active Sync is NOT OAuth2.

I don't know too much about ActiveSync, but if it's Exchange 365 using
so-called modern Auth (i.e. OAuth2), my experience is that MailMate
r5757 works fine. You need to select OAuth2 in the "IMAP Account
Settings" screen for both IMAP & SMTP. Specify
outlook.office365.com<http://outlook.office365.com/> as
the IMAP & SMTP Servers, enter your email address, and you'll
authenticate via a window that will appear.
It's possible the server side is configured to only allow specific
mail
clients. If that's the case, you'll see a message about MailMate not
being an approved client. At that point you're at the mercy of your
school and whatever policies they have in place.
But it's worth a try, it might just work!
