Outlook 2016 doesn't accept password or app password

This issue has been escalated to the Outlook Team and its being investigated. I posted a Known Issue to acknowledge the issue, Outlook and other apps are unable to connect to Outlook.com - Microsoft Support.

Thanks for escalating this. I have spent hours arguing with Microsoft support over the past few days and none of the support reps know anything about this. Is there a way to mark this with how many people they have frustrated with this? Are we sure they are even looking at that problem? They fixed the Teams Server issue within day, but that also hacked off all their large paying business customers. This one just hacks off the every day person and they may not care. It is ridiculous that they have not solved this yet.

i do kindof wonder if due to that microsoft 365 outrage thing that recently happen i don't know long time ago i did try out microsoft outlook on s7 phone and yes its install on my s20 but never set it up and don't intended to i assumed why no issues k9 email due to it being open source no email exchange like nine email have to sign in to authorize to sign into outlook/hotmail

like i said i hope get fixed by next month so i can remove k9 email and get back to good old nine email again meh

Only app on Android that will work is Microsoft Outlook and ToDo, and their office 365 suite.

Likewise, for me among MSO 2021 Pro (PC), Thunderbird (PC), Fair Email (Android), K-9Mail (Android) and Outlook (Android) only the Outlook Android client processes mail without obvious error, however it does not allow review or change of settings. It might just be ignoring the errors. There there is the different type of encryption elsewhere but changing that did not work for me and it cannot be done in many clients.

I know it's an "honest" mistake from Microsoft, but sure sounds like big brother

To you point the outage was probably not intentional but it may be revealing a proprietary grab of have been caused by back-end changes that are part of such a future grab.

Hard to believe it's taking so long to fix and no mention of it in the news.

True that. Report at Down detector under Microsoft 365 > Outlook?

The key here is Outlook desktop isn't working either. That may be the saving grace, since it's one of MS's own products that's fubar'd.

man i just chatted with microsoft they were useless i gave them same link nine email gave me and i also gave them this link and wrote what was going on they basically say we deal with outlook mail not 3rd part wasted my time i just closed chat blah they at 1st email me about verification code thought it was computer then i said mobile then they couldn't understand what i was saying nine email and calendar i feel dumb wasted my precious time and energy in chat with them

i really hope this will be fixed nine app by next month despise using k9 email all i ever done was nine was read emails that's it i like nine since paid for it long time ago i can't believe it was working just fine friday morning and stop working not receiving any new emails and inbox inside app at the bottom saying no connection retry<-and after i uninstall reinstall back other day took awhile to get back in and having everything sync inbox still nada from yesterday no new incoming mail and no connection retry mess
