I am not sure I understand the last statement. My organizations only
allow its users to access their Office365 mail accounts via OAuth2 (and
multi-factor authentication). However, the way this requirement is

so that locally you can use any IMAP client you like. What is different
here regarding what Gmail is aiming for?
