Its telling us that "Microsoft will no longer support the use of third-party email and calendar apps which ask you to sign in with only your Microsoft Account username and password. To keep you safe you will need to use a mail or calendar app which supports Microsoft’s modern authentication methods."
I access hotmail email accounts from a MacbookAir laptop using the Apple email app. Also access from an iPhone 11.
It seems legit. Can anyone confirm if it is?

I really appreciate your help but I do not know how to screenshot the icon I use. My web browser is Edge. Supposedly I have Outlook New.
Terri, if you use Edge to connect to Outlook.com/Hotmail/Live mail/MSN mail, there is nothing to do and no changes. If you use Outlook New
The same applies, nothing for you to do, no changes. To do a screenshot, press Shift+Windows Key+s to start the screen clipper. When clipped, right click > Paste into a post.
So are you saying I won't be losing access to my hotmail/outlook account? I'm not sure if I have the new outlook or not. I do not have File tab on the ribbon so supposedly that means it is new outlook but my icon doesn't look like what you posted.
In a word, no.
The whole enchilada is here = Modern Authentication Methods now needed to continue syncing Outlook Email in non-Microsoft email apps - Microsoft Support
What should I do? I really do not understand any of this. Sorry to be such a pain.
