Saved password in email account after Microsoft 365 Basic Authentication Deprecation

Hi Community

I have a bunch of profiles in sophos with exchange accounts with the password already filled, we do this so our board members don't have access to the password for the email, since the board members are switched out regularly.

So, they get the profile with the password already filled, but this has stopped working after the Basic Authentication Deprecation in Microsoft 365

Is there a way to still use saved password after the Basic Authentication Deprecation in microsoft 365 ?

It’s not possible to save passwords into the email policies configured from Sophos Central, this will need to be entered by the end-user.

The $USERNAME and $EMAILADDRESS placeholders can be used to automatically populate the email or username, but a placeholder does not exist for passwords.
