Thats more to do with Office 365, aka CoPilot365 or Microsoft365 ( whatever they call themselves these days).
Afaik, only Outlook can succesfully connect to Exchange 365 online and MS have changes the protocol & language to ' allow" non-standard applications to connect unsecure to OWA / IMAP / Exchange.
I cant recall now the features name but it happened a while ago...a compatibility services.
