AOL Mail on my iMac

Unable to add my AOL email account to my iMac on Mail. This is since March 2021. This must be an Apple Mail software problem, as I have no problem signing on, with the same email and password on line to AOL Mail and viewing my emails.

The error message is "unable to verify username or password" and I have proved both of these are correct. My iMac is late 2009 with High Sierra 10.13.6 - Has anyone any ideas please?

iMac, macOS 10.13
