I use modern auth with Mac mail. It should work fine. Here is Appleā€™s document on it.

This might require that OAuth2 support be enabled in the O365/Exchange configuration.

Morning,
Q2 of this year, Microsoft was scheduled to deprecate basic authentication in M365.  It has been postponed for now.  
But this just gives tenants more time to address the apps/people using older protocols.  For those using Apple 
products, it seems that IMAP, SMTP, and POP are common, and the products have no updates/upgrades to be found to 
address this coming issue.  If you had these products in the mix, what did you move to?  Did you force people to 
move to OUTLOOK.COM?  Some people are reticent to move to a MS product, so I figured others may have already had 
this dance with staff and faculty, and maybe had an answer.
Yes, IT was more distributed previously, and this is a pain point of centralizing.
