If you want to access this email account via an email client then the username remains the actual VM email address together with the generated app password.
You only use the third party username to access the email account via webmail and to access the My Virgin Media account associated with the email address. For these you need to use the normal password not the generated one.

It won't accept either the new or old email and not sure which password?
would it be easier to just change the log in email in 'my virgin media'?
