| __1.2 Microsoft 365 (work or school) accounts__:\\ |
| \\ |
| For Microsoft 365 (work or school) accounts, __App Passwords__ and __Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)__ are managed centrally by your organization through __Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory)__ — not through the personal Microsoft account portal.\\ |
| \\ |
| __How to enable App Passwords:__:\\ |
| • Go to the legacy __MFA portal__: [MultifactorVerification Link|https://account.activedirectory.windowsazure.com/UserManagement/MultifactorVerification.aspx] (Admin user)\\ |
| • Click on the __Service settings__ tab.\\ |
| • Enable the flag: __Allow users to create app passwords to sign in to non-browser apps__\\ |
| [SMTP Microsoft Graph XOAUTH 2 Integration/microsoft_enable_app_password.png]\\ |
| \\ |
| __Check App Password Availability:__\\ |
| a. Go to: [Security info Link| https://mysignins.microsoft.com/security-info]\\ |
| b. Sign in with your work or school email\\ |
| c. Follow the prompts to configure MFA using:\\ |
| • Microsoft Authenticator app (recommended)\\ |
| • Phone call or SMS (if permitted by your organization’s policy)\\ |
| d. If enabled by your admin, click on __+Add sign-in method__ button and you will see an __App passwords__ link in the menu to generate one:\\ |
| [SMTP Microsoft Graph XOAUTH 2 Integration|microsoft_app_password.png]\\ |
| e. If you don’t see the __App passwords__ option: |
| Check and enforce MFA:\\ |
| • Go to [MultifactorVerification Link|https://account.activedirectory.windowsazure.com/UserManagement/MultifactorVerification.aspx] (Admin user)\\ |
| • Find the target user.\\ |
| • In the __MFA Status__ column, confirm it says: __Enforced__. Otherwise, enable __MFA__.\\ |
| \\ |
| __Check if Security Defaults are enabled:__\\ |
| __App Passwords__ will not work if __Microsoft Entra ID Security Defaults__ are __enabled__ for your __tenant__.\\ |
| To disable them:\\ |
| • Go to the Microsoft Entra admin portal [Microsoft EntraLink|https://entra.microsoft.com] (Admin user)\\ |
| • Navigate to: __Identity > Overview > Properties__ Scroll down to Security Defaults and click __Manage security defaults__\\ |
| •Select Disable, then click Save. __Changes may take 5–10 minutes to take effect.__\\ |
| [SMTP Microsoft Graph XOAUTH 2 Integration|microsoft_security_details.png]\\ |
| [SMTP Microsoft Graph XOAUTH 2 Integration|tenant_security_defaults.png]\\ |
| \\ |
| 🔴 __Error message__ like:\\ |
| {{{Authentication unsuccessful, user is locked by your organization's security defaults policy. Contact your administrator.}}} |
| This indicates that your Microsoft 365 tenant has __Security Defaults__ enabled, which blocks __App Passwords__ completely, even if they were created successfully. Disable Security Defaults (if you’re the admin) [Microsoft Entra Link|https://entra.microsoft.com]. __Identity -> Overview -> Properties -> Manage security defaults__ \\ |

| __⚠️ Note__: Microsoft strongly recommends modern authentication (__OAuth 2.0__) instead of app passwords. Some tenants block app passwords entirely for security reasons.\\ |
