is it possible for JIRA mail server to access Office 365 shared mailboxes yet?

Ben Newport

I know you have to use this format for login but it is not working/

username: <O365 user name>/<shared mailbox name>
password: <O365 user password>

Hi Ben,

According to JRASERVER-30688 it should work using the following configuration:

Protocol: SECURE IMAP
Host: outlook.office365.com
Port: 993

Email address: sharedmailbox@mydomain.com

Username: sharedmailbox@mydomain.com
Password: (sharedmailbox user password)

Hope this helps.

Best,

Maarten

According to the comments in JRASERVER-3088 it may also be necessary to reset the shared mailbox password. I was not able to authenticate from Jira until I had done this.

To reset the password in the Microsoft 365:

Open the Microsoft 365 admin center.
Go to Users > Active users
Click the shared user you created for Jira
Click Reset password
Follow the instruction to create a new password
Use the new password as described by @Maarten Cautreels

I am installing the server version of Jira now and I only have Secure_SMTP and SMTP as my protocol options?

Thoughts on how I can get IMAP to get the shared mailbox feature working? Would be awesome.

Thanks

In the Microsoft Exchange admin panel (shared user > mailbox features) I have only IMAP enabled, and mail from Jira is working with the following settings for outgoing mail:

From address: sharedmailbox@mydomain.com

Protcol: SMTP
Host Name: smtp.office365.com
SMTP Port: 587
Timeout: 10000 (the default)
TLS: selected

Username: sharedmailbox@mydomain.com
Password: sharedmailbox user password

Note: To logon to Office365 requires a UPN (User Principle Name) – which for convenience sake, because no normal person would know what the heck that is – Microsoft says to make the UPN the same as the Primary SMTP (email) Address and tell users – login with your email address… that users understand. Our Outlook admin provided a username which we entered into the 'username' field in the Incoming email configuration. What was really needed was the email address. BTW. The failure to login successfully gets a socket timeout so we were blaming the network. All in a days work.

I had the same issue and got resolved after following the advice on this thread. One thing to add. I had DISALLOWED IMAP and POP against all accounts on our O365 tenant by default. So after some trial an error, discovered this and enabled IMAP.

I believe you have to use IMAP as the modern authentication with O365, which would bring up a nice popup box and cater for 2 factor authentication is non existent.

After setup, our team are now able to send an email direct to suppoert@ourcompanydomain.com and the tickets appear in Jira Service Desk correctly. And then replies from within Jira, go back to the end user.
