I have this problem - Outlook 2016 doesn't accept password or app password - and i think it is a growing World wide Microsoft problem :-(

See also here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Outlook/comments/19dx64p/outlook_2013_windows_10_suddenly_not_accepting/Outlook gives me this: (startede yesterday)

I have 2 PC's with HOTMAIL accounts in Outlook 2016 ...

They both have this error.

I do get mails ... but I can´t send mails. Yesterday it did work for 1-2 hours ... but right now the error is there all the time :-(

Please help me.

Thanks in advance

Pierre

    The issue is DEFINITELY NOT RESOLVED! MS jumped the gun again.

    The issue most manifested when your client syncs with the server either as a push or at timed sync interval. This issue was fixed or largely improved in the last day or two.

    However, if your client attempts to send an email, mark an email, change attribute on the email, move an email, or otherwise need to initiate a create or change request asynchronously to the server, then you will see the same error prompt. I can literally reproduce this on command.

    Therefore, the issue is not fully resolved as MS claims.

    I too have the 9Folders Nine email client and did NOT update to the workaround version. I am receiving email as I was before the fiasco with MS. I haven't yet sent an email, but will need to do so in the morning, and will report back if unable.

    I'm using 9folder's Nine client on Android and have not updated to the workaround version 9folders published a few days ago. Microsoft claims this issue is resolved, but my Nine client still cannot send or receive. The lousy Android Outlook client is working and never failed to work.

    Anyone get Nine to sync after the alleged resolution?
