In our case, we have detected this error appears when moving a message to a different folder:

dst_folder = account.inbox / "foldername"
message.move(dst_folder)

This comment in issue 1288 suggests changing changing the single forward slash / to a double forward slash // for building folder paths.

We have tried this and it worked, so the code that caused the error now looks like this and it works:

dst_folder = account.inbox // "foldername" # Note the double slash in this line
message.move(dst_folder)

This solution worked for me. Thank you!

We are facing this same issue on Exchange 5.2.0 with Python 3.11

It looks like a Microsoft 365 issue, rather than an issue with ExchangeLib

Same issue here.

Python 3.10
Exchanglib 4.8.0

We are facing the same issue. It would be great to release a new version if possible.

Tried the fix mentioned above in get_folder.py, but get this error now:

"name 'create_shape_element' is not defined"

folder = account.inbox
all_folders = folder.glob('**/*')
for subfolders in all_folders:

What if you are trying to traverse all subfolders and nested folders within Inbox/[SubFolders]?

from exchangelib.

Below is my code
inbox_folders = FolderCollection(account=account, folders=[account.inbox])

    for folder in inbox_folders.folders: 

        print(f'folder name::: {folder.name}')
    processed_folder = account.inbox // 'cost_auto_processed'

I get error as "No subfolder with name 'cost_auto_processed'"

Please let me know what could be the fix to get to to sub folders

Is it possible that there are now also problems when creating?
If I run the following code example, I also get the error message: "Not allowed to access Non IPM folder"

f = Folder(parent=a.inbox, name="My New Folder")
f.save()

v5.2.1 is out now

from exchangelib.

@ecederstrand Since the 5.2.1, this error has been replaced by:

exchangelib.errors.ErrorInvalidSchemaVersionForMailboxVersion: Tried versions ('Exchange2016', 'Exchange2015_SP1', 'Exchange2015', 'Exchange2013_SP1', 'Exchange2013', 'Exchange2010_SP2', 'Exchange2010_SP1', 'Exchange2010', 'Exchange2007_SP1', 'Exchange2007') but all were invalid

I don't understand why.

from exchangelib.

That's very likely a different error. Please open a new issue.
