    There is also org-msg as another option (haven't tried both so can't compare).

    org-msg replaces a lot of message composition behavior, so it's not a big surprise that it doesn't respect that variable. Make sure you're referencing org-msg's README while customizing it.

    Funny, just dealt with the whole O365 authentication just this week. With moving to 2 factor authentication you need to use OAuth 2 to do anything with it. I have my (work) O365 email forwarded, so I do have normal IMAP access. I use isync/mbsync [1] to receive email, goimapnotify [2] to get pushed new email, read/reply/etc with mu4e [3] and org-msg [4] and org-mode, and until recently just plain SMTP to send mail. This last part will break with 2 factor, but found oauth2ms [5] to set up the OAuth to work with O365 SMTP. The trick was to find the "tenet ID" from the Azure page of your organization and to use Thunderbird's credentials [6] (or another mail program, since I can't make new app registrations on Azure to have my own "application"). That should also allow you to use IMAP with OAuth 2 as well, but haven't done that since I still have the forwarding. (As usual, I think the Arch Wiki [7] covers most of this too.)
