Hi!
For a few weeks, I've been getting "enter password for hotmail" notification on my Mac. When I enter it, it says "Unable to verify account name or password". I've tried with POP, IMAP, Exchange... still have the same problem. I have another account on Mac Mail (not Outlook account) and works perfectly so I presume it's not coming from Mac but rather from Outlook.
Can someone help me please?
Thank you

Just checking you read .... go into Outlook settings and forward your hotmail to any other email that you pick up in Mac Mail.
This was my solution. It works.
When you set up your mail again using Exchange, what did you put for the fields "Internal URL" and "External URL?"
Yes. Mine is old ... ******@mac.com
The answer for me has just been forwarding hotmail to my mac mail.
Thanks for all your interest.
Hi! By mac email do you mean @cloud, @me or @mac adress?
Hello Emmanuel,
I imagine most people using mac mail would have a mac email and could forward it to that email address.
Any reason you would create another email address like a gmail one?
Cheers,
