If you are using the Outlook email program, you need to enable 2 Factor Authentication on your Apple ID and create an app specific password to use. If your account won’t allow 2 Factor Authentication, try 2 step verification.

This is the message that Outlook is providing me:

Task 'Synchronizing subscribed folders for xxxxxxxxxx@icloud.com.' reported error (0x800CCC0E) : 'Outlook cannot synchronize subscribed folders for xxxxxxxxx@icloud.com. Error: Cannot connect to the server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).

I already have the two factors identification: but this is an alias e-mail created from my main Apple account. I have changed the password on my main Apple account (and it is working also in Outlook): but the alias is proving me this error message

What can I do?
