    Setup a app to scan to email using Office 365 account and Kyocera copier and 2fa ?

    I know how to setup a Gmail account for 2fa. But never setup a App for office 365 account to use a 2fa. I think it is setup under Security and Privacy but I do not see where to set it up and the instructions I have found are confusing. Help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    I'd be interested to see this answer as well. Gmail is very straightforward, but I have yet to see the steps involved in getting 365 to work properly.

      Are you using your personal 365 account or a corporate account? If it is a part of a corporate account then you need to be logged in as the corporate administrator.

        Found out you need the Admin that set it up to turn ON (enforce) 2fa for that email and then you can set it up the APP. We will see.

          Enable App Password in Office365

          Delete the existing self signed certificate and create the new one with RSA-2048_SHA-256

          Microsoft Office365

            Microsoft is discontinuing SMTP AUTH in September. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/...p-auth/4114750

            Follow the steps here using Options 2 or 3: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/ex...-or-office-365

            Or look into High Volume Email for Microsoft 365: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/Ex...ume-mails-m365

                OAuth still works but must meet the current OAuth 2.0 requirements. In January of this year shutdown of Basic SMTP Auth was finally started. If yoiur connector setups are too old, you will have to create new ones for OAuth 2.0.

                  Kyocera recently released an app called Exchange Online Connector Utility. I haven't tried using it yet, but it's basically a proxy server that allows current and legacy devices to send/receive email that will be compliant with the new security standards. Once set up, you would register the IP/Hostname of the server hosting the utility as the new mail server. The utility also authenticates and generates a separate password that would need be registered in the device. This may be a Kyocera utility, but I don't see why it couldn't be used by other branded devices. I'd be curious to know if anybody has tried using this yet. I'll probably give it a try here at the office soon.

                  "Exchange Online Connector Utility is a Post Office Protocol (POP3) and Simple
                  Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) proxy server application that allows you to connect
                  Microsoft Exchange Online email accounts to your printers."

                  "Exchange Online Connector Utility requires authentication for each user account.
                  After successful user authentication, the application generates a separate
                  password. This password is used along with the Microsoft email account of the
                  user to authorize user accounts in Command Center RX."​

                    Sounds like Stunnel. Only Stunnel installs on a PC and acts as an in house Exchange server.

                      You ever try Pin Point scan? Easy to install and use?

                      No configuring. Customers love it, they can scan by email in their outlook. Scan to their documents or desktop or to a network folder.
