I have been using the Commons Net IMAP classes to fetch email data from a Microsoft Exchange server.  We have been using username+password for credentials. MS froced us to move to an 'App Password' recently but to me that's still a password, so single factor auth.

Now MS have told us we have to use OAuth2 to access the server, and that App Passwords are apparently obsolete.

Does anyone know if I can program the OAuth part independently of the IMAP part of my application?  Or does the OAuth part have to be tightly coupled with the initial socket creation and credentials offering?  I fear the latter.  If so, is it even on the radar of the Net developer team that any of the protocols, IMAP included, that currently using single FA might stop working real soon, as they have for me.

Any help gratefully appreciated.

Stuart
