Hi everyone, I am getting this error message again, "Unable to verify account name or password" from my hotmail.it account on the MacBook. Despite attempting all the solutions suggested by Google/Apple, none seem to resolve the issue. A temporary fix I found was to delete hotmail account from the mail account list, and then re-add it again. This worked for a few weeks, but then the error message resurfaced. Any assistance with this matter would be greatly appreciated. Best Regards, Felicia.

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
On iMac open mail app. Select add account.
One of the choices should be Microsoft Exchange
Enter info and save
This worked and I am really glad that you shared your solution here. Microsoft, Apple, or both really should have a notification about this. It seems like Microsoft wants to migrate everyone to setting their accounts up this way but it wasn't clearly signaled, advertised, or communicated.
Thank you again for sharing this.
Worked, thank you!
How do you add Microsoft Exchange? And does that mean you no longer use Apple Mail?
Thank you for all the advice but unfortunately I couldn't get anything to work for me.
