GiantTinyMidget Hi. We are using the same settings on our supportweb, except the user name of course :-), but get this error "TLS/SSL failure for outlook.office365.com: Unexpected TCP input disconnect". This came with the upgrade to 1.14.3, and it did work perfect before on osticket 1.12.x version. Have you struggled with this issue as well and solved it? Thansk for any answers that can help.

Hi, it seems like this topic has been there for a while but I wanted to get back to it.

Shared mailboxes are a feature in Office365 that, among other things, allow a single mailbox to be accessed by multiple authenticated users without the need to share credentials - which in fact would be a violation of most standards such as HIPAA or SOX. There should be no reason that osTicket should not support the use of a shared mailbox from that perspective.

There have been some comments that people have got it to work and I wanted to understand how. If I specify the Username in osTicket email settings with the authenticated_user@domain\sharedmailbox the GUI will not allow me to save it claiming that it is an invalid login. If I change the \ to / it will accept that but unfortunately that is not how Office365 will accept the login.

There were also some comments about changing include/class.mailfetch.php by changing the authentication methods but that does not seem to work either.

Can someone from osTicket development/support comment on this?

thanks

Looking at this a bit more it seems that in fact, osTicket does have support for shared mailboxes.

Looking at class.mailfetch.php line 55 actually shows that there is support for the authenticated_user@domain\sharedmailbox syntax.

The issue seems to be in the UI where it does not allow you to specify the username using this syntax so wondering if others have seen this?

BTW, we are running osTicket 1.15.1

Thanks

    It seems it's working fine without any issue for GiantTinyMidget since April 2019
    You just need to make sure you put the correct user/password

    Hello, ipf. Actually, your problem can be caused by the Unicode characters in your password. I recommend changing your password or as an alternative - trying another protocol than IMAP.

    If your email server supports POP3 connections that can also be a solution. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/authentication-fails-when-you-use-an-imap-server-in-outlook-2016-16273eaf-ec20-83f0-f25c-4277c722d42f you can find more information on how to change it.

    The third possible solution is using the 2013 version of Outlook instead of the 2016 one. In the 2013 version, this issue never happens.
