"Unable to verify account name or password" with hotmail.it account

Anonymous

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.

This worked for me, thanks to the community inputs

just add a microsoft Exchange account, and enter your hotmail details and password after it downloads all the emails on apple mail

delete the earlier outlook.live account (hotmail) in your apple mail.

hope this works!
