unable to verify email account name or passwordfor msn on my mac
I've verified that I can login on hotmail.com with the same user id and password.
MacBook Air 13", 10.13
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, Enter the part after the @sign in the search bar, then either check those Passwords under those items, change them, or delete it and start over.
You may have multiple entries.
The Password rejection can confuse people since it's a catch all meaning...
This Password, Username, Authentication method... is not recognized on this Port to this Server.
If WebMail works in a browser, it's not Name or Password, but one of the other ones.
Or Keychain has more than 2 entries for that account one incoming, one outgoing.
The receiving email ports are:
IMAP is port 143
IMAP-SSL is port 993
POP is port 110
POP-SSL is port 995
Outgoing ports are...
SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.
