1480391	2021-09-09 01:12:00	A few questions about 365 buseness email & 2FA (2 factor authentication) 2fa setup in 365 is pretty straight forward, but... email on phones (Apple & Android). Now just as important as email on the desktop. Obviously having to be txted a 2fa code on the phone your are using for email could be problematic. Wait a pain that will be . Is it just a painfull experience that will have to be put up with ? MS have an authenticator app for phones that takes care of that, but is the authenticator app REALLY 2fa (really a 2nd factor )? I tried on my Android tablet the Outlook app & the authenticator app . It does the job , but is somewhat buggy, I keep getting notifications to "sign in" . Closing & reopening Outlook fixes it, but not a good option. Again, not sure if its True 2fa ? What happens for a business with Outlook folders shared to other users :so other users can see some emails , or create an email & put into other users drafts folder. Or when more than 1 user has access to the same email adress I havnt found any relevant info on that after 2fa is implemented . Is it as simple as having alternate phone numbers to txt 2fa codes to ? Any advice from those who have setup 365 2fa in small businesses with shared email a/c's , what issues they had & workarounds they found. I cant use 365 app passwords , because strict 2fa has become a requirement (not dual passwords) Any issues with 365 2fa on iphones default email app ? cheers	1101 (13337)
