Cannot get parsedmarc to connect to O365 IMAP

[zgitgetsit]

Hello,

Im having trouble getting parsedmarc to launch. I have set it up to run as a service, and have populated the /etc/parsedmarc.ini file with a basic config:

root@parsedmarc:/etc/kibana# cat /etc/parsedmarc.ini
# This is an example comment

[general]
save_aggregate = True
save_forensic = True

[imap]
host = outlook.office365.com
#port = 993
#ssl = True
user = [email protected]
#% characters must be escaped with another % character, so use %% wherever a % character is used.
password = $password

[mailbox]
watch = True
reports_folder = INBOX
delete = False

#[elasticsearch]
#hosts = 127.0.0.1:9200
#ssl = True

#[opensearch]
#hosts = https://admin:[email protected]:9200
#ssl = True

#[splunk_hec]
#url = https://splunkhec.example.com
#token = HECTokenGoesHere
#index = email

#[s3]
#bucket = my-bucket
#path = parsedmarc

[syslog]
server = localhost
port = 514

#[gelf]
#host = logger
#port = 12201
#mode = tcp

#[webhook]
#aggregate_url = https://aggregate_url.example.com
#forensic_url = https://forensic_url.example.com
#smtp_tls_url = https://smtp_tls_url.example.com
#timeout = 60

I see this when I check journalctl:

root@parsedmarc:/etc/kibana# journalctl -fu parsedmarc

Nov 13 19:16:14 parsedmarc.ourdomain.ca systemd[1]: parsedmarc.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

The mail account Im attempting to use does not have MFA and is permitted to login via IMAP. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

It looks like you need to set SSL to true and set the port number.

Additionally you might need an app password instead of your current password.
