Office365 has started to prefer XOAUTH, and has disabled SMTP Authentication (or maybe urged admins to disable it). SMTP is what we use to allow Elevate to send emails via a client’s email server. This web page from MS describes the issue, and it also describes how your email admin can make an exception, and allow SMTP Authentication for a specific account. That is what you need to do for the account you use for sending email from Elevate:
