Configure access to mailboxes

About this article

In this article we will be creating a new App registration in Azure Active Directory (AzureAD). This is used by the Templafy Email Signature Server to update the processed e-mails in the Sent Items folder with the Templafy managed e-mail signature.

This App registration is also used to convert any TNEF/RTF e-mails into HTML so the Templafy  managed e-mail HTML signature can be appended.
