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

    Who, using 9Folders for email is doing this? Does the statement that you need to "delete your outlook email and create new" mean deleting the email on just 9Folders, or does this mean deleting it and creating a brand new email address? I assume the former, but want another opinion. Thanks all

    This issue has been escalated to the Outlook Team and its being investigated.

    Gabriel it's been 6 days since the issue started and 3 days since your post. Could we have an update please?

    Delete the account within 9Folders and re-add it.

    Personally, I tried this, and it won't let me add it back. Same with an app called Tasks. I get a "can't verify" error. May have to do what Nine folder article says, and basically delete and reinstall app and acts. Won't help my other apps though.

    Can you explain a bit more what you did? Did you do update to the new version of 9Folders? Did you delete the Outlook account from 9 and start anew? Deleting an account and starting anew is clearly a PITA, so just wanted to see if anyone tried this and was successful. Thanks
