iPhone email "No password provided" error

Suddenly cannot get email on my iphone with iOS 14.2. I get the message that there is no password provided. I have rebooted the phone. I have gone to settings and re-entered my password for the incoming and outgoing mail servers. Am jstill getting the same message that there is no password provided.

The solution in this article is ineffective. Using IOS 14.2 on my iPad and iPhone. I have had to delete and recreate the mail account already because of certificate errors. Now the system keeps telling me that no password is provided. This is not a password error or an account settings error on my part as I am using the exact same information on my MacBook Pro which is still able to send and receive emails. I believe that the fact my MacBook can send and receive should be sufficient evidence that there is not a problem with my provider. This issue with failing to send and receive on my iOS devices popped up in the last 2 days and no matter how many times I delete and recreate the account, the message persists about no password provided. When I have provided an incorrect password, it tells me the password is incorrect. Here I have provided the password, yet it tells me it is not present.
