This usually means that the TLS certificate on the server is either invalid or has expired.


You need to delete the account, then restart the phone-->Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support. After restarting the phone add the account back. You may see a message that the server identity can't be verified; there should be 3 choices: Continue, Details, and Cancel. Choose Continue and it should accept it. But the restart step is essential, because until the phone restarts the settings for the deleted account remain on the phone.
