Hello, I have changed my password with outlook and after I tried to updated with BlackBerry hub services either on my android device or Pixel 8 can't authenticate or connect to server errors persists. Microsoft Azure certificate comes faulty as well and I need a solution for it because it looks like nobody in this office using BlackBerry hub app in pixel 8 and even BlackBerry key2 can't connect to outlook. After uninstall and reinstall does the same "can't connect to server" or "can't authenticate" error not on exchange server, imap or pop. I tried everything and Microsoft seems not to answer questions about it.

    Yes at that time the IMAP configuration in BB HUB for an Hotmail account works fine for email but nada for contacts and planning.

    You don't need to pay Microsoft for the email, you just setup the Outlook account in Hub via IMAP. It's explained on previous pages. It works fine.

    More and more I'm starting to feel bullied into downloading Outlook... Last week I put a wrong password in outlook.live and it asked me to reset my password after "too many wrong attempts". Fair enough, it was an old password, I haven't changed it in years because my MS account was only used via BBHub and XBox. Today it asked me again to reset my password after one wrong attempt and didn't allow me to go back to the old one. After reseting it I was greeted with a pop-up telling me to "get rid of passwords" by installing Outlook for android...

    I fumbled around in the security options of my MS account and found no option for a two factor authentication with a simple SMS code, just install MS Authenticator or suck it up, so if anyone knows if it is possible to add 2FA via an SMS instead of an app it would be much appreciated.

    I honestly feel this will backfire on Microsoft, big time. Bullying people into restricting themselves to your own ecosystem is not a very good policy because most will simply turn away and look for alternatives instead of jumping through hoops to keep using a product that no longer serves them... I think from now on my MS account will only serve to log into my XBox and that will be it, which is sad, really...
