    That link assumes you can just add the email back choosing the outlook link but it doesn't work as it says the imap username / password is wrong when it isn't.

    We need an answer to that issue please.

    Hi,everyone!

    This happens in Microsoft domain mailboxes (Outlook/Hotmail/Msn/live).

    For configuration in Apple Mail, see the lowest end of that link.

    Modern Authentication Methods now needed to continue syncing Outlook Email in non-Microsoft email apps - Microsoft Support

    Best Regards

    Jimmy

    What I have is Apple Mail on my phone linked to Outlook/Hotmail so I can see my Outlook emails on my phone. Microsoft did a change that took effect on Sept 30 that basically broke that link - for authentication purposes they say. You may have an email from them in July and again about 3 weeks ago warning of this and offering fix suggestions. My Apple Mail fix was to delete and then re-install Outlook on the Apple Mail App. It worked - with my Archived emails on Apple Mail lost. The re-install seemed to do away with the IMAP on the “Incoming Mail Server” as part of the re-install. I don’t know about anything other than Apple Mail issues.

    If you have Apple Mail that’s linked to Outlook so you can see your email on your phone you go to settings-mail-accounts-Outlook and hit “Delete Account”. Then after the delete is confirmed hit “Add Account” and reinstall Outlook using your email/password. This will reconfigure Apple Mail to Outlook but you’ll lose anything in Archves and Notes on Apple Mail. Check actual Outlook first to make sure all is good on it and you won’t lose anything on Outlook itself. Your inbox on Outlook will reload on Apple Mail.
