Updating outgoing email password

How to add outgoing email password to existing email account on new iphone 12 or iPad. My account info transferred from my old device & I was able to update the incoming email PW. But my outgoing email is failing due to PW and I cannot find anywhere to enter an outgoing PW.

IF you go to settings - mail - account - said email account - maybe in advance if you don't see a place to edit the password, then you can delete the account and re-add it.
