SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Get a hotmail (outlook.com) account
2. Try to add it to KMail using EWS transport

OBSERVED RESULT
When adding using password, “Failed to process EWS request: Host requires
authorization”

When adding using OAuth, a dialog pops up asking for login and password, and
then a throbber dialog hangs indefinitely after entering correct password.


EWS URL is set to https://outlook.office365.com/ews/exchange.asmx 
I also tried to replace the domail with `m.hotmail.com` and `m.outlook.com` but
neither of these worked.

EXPECTED RESULT
Authenticating using password worked in the past.
OAuth never worked for me.
