Cause

Microsoft's Office 365 SMTP solution recommends and will soon require multi-factor authentication

Resolution

MSGraph REST API is a new way to securely send emails using Office 365. It can be used in place of communicating directly with the Office 365 email relay server. Using this option, outbound emails can now authenticate on accounts using a multi-factor authentication through the API. Clients will want to configure the API within their MSGraph administration page before enabling this option.
