This suddenly started yesterday 3/4/2020.
I have 3 email accounts on my android Outlook app. Outlook.com, Google, my ISP's. The problem only happens with my ISP (comcast.net, IMAP).
Till yesterday night, I can send/retrieve emails from the same server without an issue with Outlook app.
First I noticed Outlook requested to re-enter email password. But it failed. So I deleted account, then added. Failed. I even removed Outlook app and re-installed it. Failed. Google and Outlook account are just fine.
I didn't change anything from my side. I can access Comcast email from Web/Windows 10 mail and even from the same phone using Samsung standard email app.
What was changed and how to solve it? I can use Samsung standard email app but I like Outlook.

My playstore doesn’t give me the option to Update Outlook. There’s only an Open button that opens my current version
Hi!
This is off-topic (see actual question).
Please wait for the play store providing you with new updates or ask a new question for your needs - thanks!
Kind regards,
Gerald

How does one update Outlook on Android?
For me it shows up as available in Google playstore. I don't have auto update activated in the Google playstore settings. This gives you the option to decide if you want to use the available version of an app.

The update that rolled out 11/11/2020 Version: 4.2044.1 (42044813) seems to have finally rectified the issue.
Have you tried to close and start it again several times? Usually you would get the famous "updating" message bug on start introduced by the October 9 update that spoils the IMAP account. Let's wait few days to see whether it is really fixed or not.
