Hi @alovella .

Thank you for the update on this, as you may be aware we are still dealing with an outage in relation to emails and their access on multiple email apps that we are continuously working on in the background, this may be linked, but cannot confirm. In the meantime, the settings may of changed for the email server so you may want to try adding your account manually. 

The settings can be found in the link below.

👉 Manual email.

Please keep us updated on this.

Already done all this. but still same issue. will give it another go though.

Done it, as i've done it many other times. it says failed credentials

The entered credential or authentication information does not work or are no longer accepted by provider. Please change them.  This is all I get.

Thanks for trying this and for sharing more, can you please advise if the same thing happens when you access the mailbox over a browser rather than the app/client software?

Can we ask if you're able to log on successfully following this link and try signing in there?

yes, I used the link & can sign in therer. i'm using and have used outlook mail for a long time  & i'm able to access my own email no problem, although I did have a few issues a few days ago where I was receiving my wifes emails but my own emails were not coming through for some time. since then my email has worked no problem. just cannot access my wifes emails anymore

Ok, thank you for sharing more.

Can you tell us if accessing that mailbox (your wife's) over this link posted just above, using her email and password works? 

If not, what error do you get and are you able to reset the password for this email account?

no, I can't even access wifes email through their either. says account setting out of date

 

I've since deleted my wifes email from VM's main emailing account site Then re-instated it. it keeps saying about her password which has never changed but wiull not accept it.5
