My solution was a lot simpler when I wanted to read work emails in my linux client. I just turned on forwarding in Office 365 to an email address on my server at home. I spoof the "Reply To:" back to my work address, though I almost only *read* emails from home. I rarely reply until I get to work the next time. My office doesn't use two-factor authentication, so I don't know if that makes this impossible... It's not perfect, but it only took 30 seconds, and it's good enough. > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
