Why can't I use an Office 365 or Gmail account with timeSensor LEGAL?

eMail accounts from Gmail or Exchange Server (also Microsoft 365) are set up with so-called 'enhanced security' by default. In reality, however, this only means that only the 'in-house' protocol is supported by default and standard protocols (POP3, SMTP) are not permitted. Of course, this has little to do with 'increased security' and a lot to do with the preference for one's own protocol.

In order for timeSensor LEGAL to communicate via such accounts, the customer, or the customer's administrator, must allow the standard protocols POP3 and SMTP. This is usually just a checkbox, but as long as the standard protocols are not allowed, tSL cannot retrieve or send e-mails. Besides timeSensor LEGAL, there are often other use cases for which the standard protocols are used, for example when a printer or a scanner is to be integrated.

Details on how to set up the standard protocols at Microsoft can be found here:
