Description

This is connecting the exchange using basic authentication. Since the basic authentication is going to be deprecated by microsoft for O365 in oct'22, is there an alternate way to connect to O365 using modern authentication? If yes is it possible to use it in this code? Or is it possible to use Connect-ExchangeOnline module?

Start by reviewing the Azure Function's existing PowerShell connection code and how it currently uses basic authentication for O365. Investigate whether modern authentication or the Connect-ExchangeOnline module fits this code, and define done as a tested replacement or a documented reason it cannot be used.
