* Locked

On Sat Jan 8, 2022, my outlook/hotmail account was temporarily locked due to "unusual activity". I requested a verification code, and my account was unlocked. I changed my password. I logged in OK the next day. I can receive emails, but as soon as I send an email, my account is locked again. What can I do?

    No change with me. The app has asked for me to enter password etc but still nothing.

    Someone’s asked which software, well for me it’s all. I noticed it on iOS outlook app on my iPad but can’t send anything from pc to iPhone.
