Trouble setting up Mail on my new Mac

I got the newest MacBook Pro, trying to set up my Mail, somehow it tells me "Unable to verify account name or password". But I use it on my iPhone, and I can also sign in to email on website using Safari. Someone please help me! I'm not tech savvy :(


MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.15

Thank you so much for your help. I turned off the two step authentication, and it worked, then I signed in to my account and turned it on again. But I didn’t use password app tho. I initially tried so many ways and couldn’t get it done. I even have talked to Apple support team twice on the phone, they didn’t tell me it was because I had the two step authentication on. Anyway, huge thanks to you!
