Assistance needed to connect fetchmail to Outlook office 365

Hi All,

 

I'm currently running into an issue post-migration of our exchange server to outlook office 365.

We need to update our fetchmail configs to be able to poll email from outlook office 365; for some reason I keep getting this error message.

fetchmail: Authorization failure on someuser@syd-efz.ms-acdc.office.com
fetchmail: Query status=3 (AUTHFAIL)

 

I'm not sure what I did wrong, can some please assist here?

Below are my current configs:

poll outlook.office365.com protocol IMAP port 993
auth password
user someuser pass somepassword ssl sslfingerprint "bla:bla:bla" is destination.folder here
folder "INBOX/testfolder"
