That doesn't answer Philippe's question at all. He said Claws Mail was not
acceptable by the dumb IT people, and wanted to "make O365 believe that I use
Thunderbird". AFAIK (as someone who purposely avoids ever using OAUTH2) this
is possible by using thunderbird's client id and client secret. IIRC, this
what you used, David, on your very first version of your patch adding OAUTH2
support. Please explain to Philippe how he can do that.
