Hi,

Recently saw that you added support for iCloud accounts but still nothing for IMAP emails. Any word on when this will be available? After this feature is added, I can stop using the OLD Outlook desktop app.

Thanks

Stephen

    I had exactly the same problem as the "Continue" -button was inactive. Changing the security option to "none" activated the button but still kept the SSL as an option. Looks like a clear bug to me. After playing around with the security settings, I was able to add my IMAP account successfully.

    After finally figuring out how to un-gray the continue button by selecting 'none' from the SMTP encryption security box, it still fails to connect to my protonmail IMAP account.

    Best part is that now I can't use the old app which had all my accounts fully functioning and I'm locked into the new one that doesn't work. Even better is that we have two months until its permanent.

    What's up with the constant forced updates that don't work guys? I need my protonmail account for my business, this manipulation and forced usage of your garbage software is unacceptable. Fix it.

    Dont know if this will help anyone but what finally worked for me to add more than 1 imap account, when entering the 'advanced' details I selected 'none' for the SMTP security and it finally let me click on 'continue'. Remind me again why I'm paying for this ? :(

    Hi, trying again today, 29 October

    Put all my detains in for IMAP but the continue button is greyed out.

    Why advertise setting up IMAP if it does not work.

    Thanks Microsoft, another waste of time.

    Cheers

    Hi,

    How can I configure an imap account, knowing that I must enter the username for both imap and SMTP. For now it is not possible or does not allow configuration.
