How to configure "fetchmail" for Office 365?

Hi,

The shared email box of my Company has recently been migrated to Office 365 and I am able to login to the account using the OWA. However I am required to configure the Unix 'fetchmail' tool to automatically read emails as sent to this shared email account.

However I am getting the following error message as I am trying to run the following command:
$ /usr/bin/fetchmail -f /fetchmail/.fetchmailrc

fetchmail: socket error while fetching from *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET)

Following is the configuration that I am using in the fetchmailrc file.

poll pod51044.outlook.com with proto IMAP port 993
        user 'RSC-PQ-NStar-Acquisitions'
        password '<password>'
        folder "Inbox/test"
        keep

Also I am not able to get any response as I am ping(ing) the concerned host from my box:

$ ping pod51044.outlook.com
PING pod51044.outlook.com (132.245.1.121) 56(84) bytes of data.

--- pod51044.outlook.com ping statistics ---
7 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 5999ms

It will be of great help if you please let me know the correct configuration to connect to concerned email box. Any feedback and suggestion is appreciated. Thank you.

Best Regards,
Dipanjan
