Unable to add M365 shared mailbox to Mail

Anyone know what’s the latest with this?

my understanding is that since MS introduced security defaults to 365, older protocols have been blocked including IMAP which means that the old way of adding a shared mailbox in Mail no longer works.

I don’t want to turn off security defaults.

I know you can give the shared mailbox a password but this then enrols the mailbox for MFA :-(

The client doesn’t want to go to Outlook (although it’s free) and some of their Macs aren’t yet in MacOS 11.

So is there a solution that works???

How to configure a Mac Mail POP client for gmail - client and server authentication I am no longer able to configure a Mac Mail POP client account for Gmail Email accounts without resorting to allowing "Access to less secure apps" or using App Passwords on the server side. IMAP is easy. Simple client-server operation: Mac Mail client & Gmail server operate in such a way that no Email is ever deleted from the server. The server leaves client downloaded messages on the server and makes all mail available to multiple clients regardless of whether or not mail was previously downloaded. All server mail and associated attachments on the server are dowloaded and stored locally on each client device. Is it possible to make a Mac Mail POP client work with Gmail without allowing "Access to less secure apps" or using App Passwords? How are the client account Incoming and Outgoing server fields filled in? How is the authentication handshake done? The above seems made for a POP client but could an IMAP client work as well?

Restoring gmail integration in Mail Gmail's latest security protocols leave me unable to send or receive gmail messages in the Mail program on my MacBook Air as I always have, though the integration still works fine on my iPhone. It seems Google only wants gmail to integrate with third party applications that use 2-step authentication. I've enabled this in my Google settings but I don't see anything in my laptop's Mail that allows me to activate this feature. I've spent hours with the Google and Apple knowledge bases without finding the solution to restoring this basic functionality. Any help here? Thanks.
