A couple of years ago I configured an authenticator for our very few
Outlook users. It seems Outlook runs best/only with a "login"
authenticator. BTW: The "login" authenticator for Outlook is different
(server_prompts) from the "login" authenticator for the good old
"Eudora". But I assume Outlook "login" authenticator is the exotic one

# OUTLOOK
login:
  driver             = plaintext
  public_name        = LOGIN
# server_debug_print = SMTP>> LOGIN-USER: $1  LOOKUP-PASSWD: ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/mailusers}}
  server_prompts     = "Username:: : Password::"
  server_condition   = ${if and {{!eq{$2}{}}{eq{$2}{${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/mailusers}}}}}{yes}{no}}
  server_set_id      = $1
