If you are using a business email provided by Microsoft as a third party
then it maybe it requires the client to be registered with Azure. I
spent much time trying to understand all that without much success. I
have an outlook email account working with Oauth2, but it is a free
email address, it might be different for a business address. I think NFN
Smith posted about it some time ago but my news server doesn't go back
very far.

Maybe also search Bugzilla.
