Thank you! I tried for ages using Hotmail and switching to outlook fixed the issue 👍
Great advice, thanks for posting.
I had the same issue :
Iphone 11( IOS18)
Email app stopped working.
Tried switching phone off and back on , deleted the email account and tried adding it on but kept getting the error message “ IMAP server ……. Password does not support authentication.” I was selecting “other” option when adding it on .
When i selected “outlook.com” option instead of “other” , it worked. Problem resolved.
Omg legend!! Thank you so much
