Purpose ======= As it has been done for Gmail, we want to add the OAuth authentication for the incoming / outgoing mail server. Specifications ============== The user has to create a project on Outlook and fill the credentials in Odoo. Once it's done, he can create an incoming / outgoing mail server. For the authentication flow is a bit different from Gmail. For Outlook the user is redirected to Outlook where he'll accept the permission. Once it's done, he's redirected again to the mail server form view and the tokens are automatically added on the mail server. Technical ========= There are 3 tokens used for the OAuth authentication. 1. The authentication code. This one is only used to get the refresh token and the first access token. It's the code returned by the user browser during the authentication flow. 2. The refresh token. This one will never change once the user is authenticated. This token is used to get new access token once they are expired. 3. The access token. Those tokens have an expiration date (1 hour) and are used in the XOAUTH2 protocol to authenticate the IMAP / SMTP connection. During the authentication process, we can also give a state that will be returned by the user browser. This state contains 1. The model and the ID of the mail server (as the same mixin manage both incoming and outgoing mail server) 2. A CSRF token which sign those values and is verified once the browser redirect the user to the Odoo database. This is useful so a malicious user can not send a link to an admin to disconnect the mail server. Task-2751996 X-original-commit: 18dad5b13b0af81ef2089fc039b3a866a2895a53 Part-of: odoo/odoo#87731
