Accessing email

As of noon today, I am getting an error message on my Iphone12 that my email password is incorrect. I saw the response about two factor authentication, but I do not have that set up on my laptop. I don’t understand why it is all of a sudden either?

fortunately, I can still get my email on

my windows laptop. Help is appreciated.

iPhone 12

Email Authentication Issue - wrong email address entered at first setup I don't know where to go for help, so I'll start here. Got a new iphone a while back. Set up my email accounts however I made typo that very first time. My email address (not my real one) xyz.zyx@provider.com, that's two words with dot in middle instead I entered xyzzyx@provider.com, one word, missed the dot. Now, when I send emails I get the "cannot send" authenticate required error. When I click through (windows live) it shows the email with the error in it. I can't seem to change this in iphone so that it points toward my correct email. Can log in correctly on ipad and other devices. Seems to be only this iphone. I changed the default account everywhere I could to the correct email, I can receive but cannot send. How can I disassociate the erroneous email? Does this make sense?

Email on iphones I made the huge mistake of adding Microsoft Authenticator to my iPhone. When trying to login to my email, it refused to recognize my password, my backup email, and my phone number. Now I’m locked out of email and I can’t get rid of authentication or reinstall my email. HELP!
