The set-up is done in 2 steps:

1.
- APP Registration of the TimeSensor Legal application in the Microsoft-AZURE portal :
Account type: Only accounts in this organisation directory, Platform: Web; Redirect URI: http://localhost:50993/authorize/

- read out from
Application ID (client) , directory ID (client), client credentials (client secret key value).
for entry in TSL (step 2)

- Issuance of the 3 required APP authorisations
  POP.AccessAsUser.All, SMTP.Send, offline_access


- Activate the initially deactivated authorisation
"Authenticated SMTP"
in Microsoft 365 admin center 


2.
in TSL, general and account-specific MS 365 settings can now be made:
switch to the area Parameters -> tab "Communication" and create an account according to the following screenshots - Provider : Microsoft 365, Type of account : POP3
 - in the example for the user Robert Kürten, email address: robert.kuerten@timesensor.onmicrosoft.com





now enter the details from the AZURE app registration once for each law firm, see step 1.
(After successful registration, the display changes to green).






 
















Now switch to the communicator and call up the function Tools --> Manage accounts.


The set-up of an email account can now be completed by each user authenticating himself/herself to Microsoft
via the function Tools --> Manage accounts --> "Authenticate" button by entering the MS365 email address and password.










TS Legal calls up an external browser for this purpose and, after successful login, obtains tokens that remain permanently stored in the application and legitimise the communicator to MS365 for future mail retrievals.
If the authentication in the browser was successful, you will receive the message "Verification code received" there and the signal dot in TSL will change to green.

If no login window appears, log out of Microsoft at https://account.microsoft.com/ and click on "Forgotten account" on the homepage. Avoid "Stay logged in" when logging in so that multiple communicator accounts can also be set up without worry.







Nach erfolgreicher  Authentifizierung können Sie zurückgehen in  Bereich Parameter  -> Reiter "Kommunikation"  -> Kontoliste  und aus der Konto-Ansicht mit der Schaltfläche <Testmail senden> überprüfen,  ob der Versand über SMTP möglich ist..
