Hello,

Thanks for your comments!

I have been speculating (maybe better: hoping) that since this is specified on an organization-wide basis that overriding the Tenant ID (as per instructions from my employer) might do the trick here. I've not found a way to do this in MailMate, though.

Cheers,

John

These include overriding the Tenant and Application ID settings — there's an example of what that looks like at https://urchin.earth.li/~jds/evolution-oauth2.png. Perhaps something similar is necessary in MailMate - is that possible?
