Turned-Off Basic Authentication – All Protocols

Originally posted by Microsoft Dec 13, 2021 Exchange Online 0 Comments

We are making some changes to improve the security of your tenant. We announced in 2019 we would be retiring Basic Authentication for legacy protocols and in early 2021 we announced we would begin to retire Basic Authentication for protocols not being used in tenants. You can always read the latest information about our plans to turn off Basic Authentication here .

Today we turned off Basic Authentication for POP3, IMAP4, Remote PowerShell, Exchange Web Services, Offline Address Book, MAPI, RPC, SMTP AUTH and Exchange ActiveSync protocol in your tenant. Based on our telemetry, no-one is currently using Basic Authentication with those protocols in your tenant and so we expect there to be no impact to you.

Improved consistency of user experience between OneDrive and SharePoint, allowing users to “delete” files labeled with a retention label configured to “retain items for a specific period” as this operation is no longer blocked with an error message. When deleted, these files will still be preserved for compliance purposes by moving a copy of them to the “Preservation Hold Library” of the site where they can be accessed by eDiscovery and other compliance solutions.
